Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Red Blend 2010 (about $18)



About the Wine:  Indian Wells is the new line from Chateau Ste. Michelle which, I am told, is somehow different than all the other lines from that portfolio.

About THIS Wine:  The center is purple with a red rim.  Blackberry, cooking spice, and raspberry make up a thick, rich nose.  The palate is dry, fruity, and tannic.  Dry red fruit lingers in the finish.

Drinking This Wine:  Probably not a sipping wine.  This would do well with juicy meat or pasta dishes.

Overall Impression:  This is a very good wine.  Eighteen dollars is not cheap but the wine is worth it.  This one is reasonable for the price.
