Stone Wolf Winery
Lindsay Del Rio Vineyards cabernet sauvignon 2005 Rogue River Valley $25 bought 3 bottles.
Deep garnet. Soft cassis nose with plumy notes. Delightful midpalate of purple plums and black raspberry, firm but fine tannins, and balancing acidity. Nice medium to long finish. Medium-bodied wine that strikes me as a good food wine.
