Wine For Good 2004 Good Red, Paso Robles, California
This interesting blend is composed of
40% syrah, 24% merlot, 16% cabernet sauvignon, 14% zinfandel, and 5% viognier.
Blackberries, blueberries, toasted vanilla caramel,
with hints of cappuccino, this red blend is delicious.
The big fruit is prominent, but the soft tannins and
soft acidity give this spicy red some structure.
Good Wine? I say great wine. -BF -$15
