Sipping Fine Wine Delectable Pro

From Trinchero Family Estates, a blend of 60% Cab Sauv and 40% Merlot, dark Ruby with bold dark fruit and floral spice aromas. On the palate, ripe fruits, blackberry and cherry with espresso, cinnamon and tar notes. Dusty tannins, some oak with earthy tones on a medium plus finish. Nice offering, but I think ‘12 was a bit better! The Merlot makes it good to drink now, but let this develop a bit.

Pretty average wine. Not bad but not hitting all the right notes. A little flabby and didn’t have enough backbone to hold it all up and together.
