"This dark ruby red wine opens with a light raspberry like bouquet with notes of spice. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is a fruit bomb, nicely balanced, and quite smooth. It is loaded with lush blackberry flavors with some notes of black cherry and vanilla that linger. The finish is quite dry with noticeable tannins that stick around from quite some time. This wine is a perfect wine for your summer barbecue whether it is burgers, ribs, or steak tips on the grill. " - kenswineguide.com
Winemaker Notes: The Adobe Red is a proprietary blend with ripe flavors of cherry, plum and vanilla bean, with rich spicy blueberry and cherry notes. The tannins are supple, and the balanced oak character adds additional vanilla notes.
This delicious blend is available at Village Wines for about $14. The 2007 is out now as well. 3 stars

Glad you liked the Adobe Red! I'm not the winemaker, I'm the PR guy, but I'll pass along your comments to winemaker David Frick. Look around for the Adobe White, as well: a kitchen sink blend based on Viognier and Chenin Blanc; great for warm summer days.
