The wine is excellent! A great example of what the Finger Lakes can do with a good, ripe crop of red grapes. Rich aroma, smooth, medium body, great mouthfeel, nice lingering fruit. I would highly recommend this as truly representative of a top Finger Lakes red. My kudos to Ann and the winemaking team (is John still there too?). Bill would be proud!

We had this wine with our filet roast and it was wonderful!! The roast was too! I don't know enough about wine to be more descriptive than it was wonderful and I would order again.
