Flat-out juicy, with the sensation of biting into cherries and plums and letting the juice run down your chin. Drink with braised short ribs. Highly Recommended. 92 points.
With more than 50 wineries and wines taking top honors at major wine competitions, the Livermore wine country is better than ever. Three newcomers on the wine scene are raising the bar higher.
A very juicy fruit-forward wine sprinkled with white pepper and allspice. Blackberries and figs lead the attack, giving way to black cherry cola, pepper, and vanilla on the mid-palate. Tannins are sweet and smooth. Acid is quite powerful, even a little bit tingly, but should settle down over time. Drink with pork roast.
