2018 Nichole's Blend Sonoma County

A deep inky blue-purple color introduces this gorgeous wine. After a light swirl a mélange of ripe raspberry, Marion berry, streusel, sassafras, cedar, and sweet oak fill the glass.  The potpourri of aromas is matched on the palate.  Draped with suave tannins, sappy red fruit and sassafras are tied together with notes of blood orange.  Lingering flavors of ripe raspberry and mocha coffee bring closure to an extremely pleasing wine.  Drink now, or over the next 5 to 7 years.
