Colby Red 2011

California, United StatesThis is a red wine that has mass appeal - a round and lush and sweetiesh blend of cabernet sauvignon, syrah, petite sirah, zinfandel and merlot, sourced in California. Smooth, toasty, vanilla, earthy branch and raspberry jam - simple and purposefully built to please crowds. Daryl Groom, former head red winemaker at Penfolds and Geyser Peak, came up with this wine for his son Colby, who had two open heart surgeries to treat his congenital heart disease before the age of ten. Proceeds of this wine are dedicated to raising funds for cardiac research around the world. Red wine can be good for your heart!Tasted: 13 October 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
