Sebastiani Gravel Bed Red Blend 2014
The 2014 Gravel Bed Red is dark purplish to ruby in color. Its nose is swarming with Cabernet spice, currant, black cherries,coconut wood aromatics and hints of black tea. The flavor is fruit forward with delicious blackberries followed by raspberry,underbrush tones, and dried leaves. The finish has great acidity and tannins which helps reign in the generous fruit affordedby a riper season.
