Deep dark ruby red, nose of scorched earth, sweet blueberries, cassis and blackberries, a thick well rounded out wine with long finish. A really great wine, wish I had more.

I'm not sure why we bought this wine, but thanks to Devin at the Spirit Shoppe for stocking it. We had never had the Babol grape before but what an incredible surprise. Tastes like a hugely ripe cabernet with a slight blend of Australian shiraz. This wine would make some classed growth Bordeaux blush with shame. The nose just keeps coming from the glass -- a blend of blackberry, vanilla, and some cocoa. The taste was fantastic. Lots of black berries, ripe plums, and a hint of allspice/fall spices(?). The finish is moderately long. If it wasn't for the finish this might score in the high 90's. I know the Spirit Shoppe is out, but if you can find it this is a great deal at roughly $65/bottle.

Nose was dense and smelled like a powerful cabernet/Bordeaux. Lots of layers with ripe fruit, berrries, and spices. Tannins come out on finish. Wonderful wine!

this wine on its own is very good-sweet muscadine. We also tried it with their spices for a mulled wine-that was fantastic!
