RED


2004
St. Francis Winery
Sonoma County, CA

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Zinfandel

Will most likely drink again.

Would probably pair well with more casual Italian flavored foods. I had it with baked chicken and then it's flavor took on a woodsiness that I liked.

A blend of Zinfandel, Merlot, and not just one Cabernet,
heady fruit and grapelike bouquet.
Somewhat heavy bodied but aloof with its chalk-like state,
a little leather in the middle, slight spice, almost difficult to rate.
And so it was with the fleeting finish glass of RED,
not compelled to write much more, I'm off to bed.
