Name: Folk & Fable
Variety: Red Blend
Region: CA
Country: USA
Year: 2017

Winery Review: "A new vintage of our favorite California Red Blend shows caramelized, toasty notes with hints of warm baking spices like vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove- the result of being partially aged in Bourbon barrels for three months. Pairs best with grilled steak, burgers, or hard, aged cheeses like cheddar." -Winemakers notes
My Review: This wine had a funky taste to it, it was barrel aged and had a strange after taste. It did taste like spices but I couldn't tell if that was just the bourbon from it. I felt that it was in balanced, ultimately it was not my favorite and I probably wouldn't get it again.
