Double Diamond (Schrader) Proprietary Red

I love this wine. But, when compared with older Diamond Creek, or older Heitz Martha's, or good Bordeaux blends and even Bordeaux second wines, which I've been sipping recently, this seems to be of a different world. Sweet on entry, across the tongue and sloshed around the gums ( yes, palate) and even on the first and second sniff, it's just missing the earth and spices and secondary, and mostly tertiary things we all love. And the way to get …

Simply delicious! A wine for Halloween, with a creamy blue cheese and oodles of frightening chocolate of the ghosts and goblins. More to come PS Drink The Rainbow!!!

LABELED AS 2022 - CELLAR FOR ANOTHER 5 YEARS

fsntastic bottle of wine very aromatic. lovely fruit. i feel like the fruit comes from a mountein region. cheers.

Delicious! A Bordeaux blend, with the power, forward, berry bursting lushness and plushness of sunny CA! 5-8 years too early. Into the cellar it goes, until then! Decanted for 2 hours Left a couple of glasses in open air decanter for 24- 48- 72 hours so far... It's softening ever so gradually. But again, it's years from hitting it's stride. Purple Tannic CS 50% M. 25% CF 25% 15.2% abv - that's not a typo!! PS- Drink The Rainbow!!

Decanted 8 hours. Fragrant nose with flavor bursting in your mouth. Fruity and earthy at the same time. This is a very well made wine. Excellent quality for the price.

Not sure if this wine has the correct title - the black label is the Proprietary Red with 50% Cabernet and the white label is the 100% Cabernet - two different wines. Regardless, I tasted the black label. It simply tasted of Napa - intense fruit flavour with blackberry, cassis, spicy vanilla - very rich and appealing. Still a baby but really delicious!
