Light cedar notes. Like all the Ironstone reds it is very drinkable, though it should get even better with a few years bottle age. This wine is truly delicious and goes down so easy that the brandy-enhanced 18 percent alcohol may sneak up on you. Tarry, earthy plum fruit. For now and for the cellar.
Case purchases highly recommended.
Yes, Symphony is the name of a grape, but don't feel bad if you haven't heard of it. It's a cross created at UC Davis from two obscure white grapes. Growers love it because it is very high yielding. This version is very tasty and will make a dandy brunch wine, poolside sipper or cocktail substitute. It likes to be well-chilled.
