Envy 2009 Bee Bee’s Blend Estate Red (Calistoga)

Country: US / Bee Bee’s Blend Estate
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Envy / Calistoga

A little rustic and rough in texture, but otherwise this is a nice, dry wine. It’s also pretty fierce in tannins, but offers polished blackberry, cured-meat, pepper and cedar flavors. Could gain in the bottle over the next 4–5 years.
