($8): Confusingly, the Two Vines designation refers–not the blend of grapes–but to the trellising system they use.  I actually preferred this to a more expensive bottling that showed the effect of oak more prominently.  With this wine, there is only a hint of oak, which means that the primary red fruit flavors are the focus.   This is a stylish wine with more complexity than the price would suggest. There’s no confusion about its value–it’s an excellent buy. 86 Michael Apstein May 13, 2008
