19 Crimes The Banished Dark Red

"The Uprising, a new wine aged for 30 days in rum barrels, pays homage to Australia's "Rum Rebellion" of 1808. Due to the Government's hindering of the rum trade, the rebellion was the only time a group of soldiers and citizens banded together to overthrow the Government. A portion of this hand-crafted wine has thus been aged for 30 days in rum barrels and is dark with jammy flavors and a smoky finish." —winemaker

Blend: Grenache, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon

"Wonderful paired with a scheme for an evening's escape, this wine conjures up red currants, dark berries and sweet vanilla oak in a passing smell. Caramel lurks in the back. Firm cabernet tannins and red fruits let the flavor linger after each nip." —winemaker

"The J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon is dense and dark at the core, with a brilliant garnet hue around the rim. Ripe fruit aromas of black cherry and currant are accented by notes of toasted pastry, hazelnut, and vanilla from our barrel aging program. Big, juicy red-fruit flavors infuse the palate while softly textured tannins lead to a long finish." —winemaker

"Brilliant, straw-yellow color, quite intense. Delicate and sweet, peach flavored. Perfect with dessert and especially with pastries." —importer
