14.1% alcohol.
Maybe my first domestic 2009 wine? Blend of grapes from several vineyards. Entry level from Owen Roe. Purple color with deep scarlet rim and some transparency. Juicy ripeness, lifted note, penetrates nasal cavities with muddled dark berries. A nice alternative to more expensive Oregon Pinots. I had it with a ground beef/macaroni casserole (comfort food) and another night with deep dish pizza. This could be a good choice for a summer patio party. Usually under $20 a bottle--sometimes under $15.
