Winery Review: 19 Crimes tells the true story of rulebreakers who beat the odds, overcame adversity, and went on to become folk heroes in their society. This spirit lives on today through innovators and culture creators, like Cali's own Snoop Dogg. A leader in contemporary pop culture, Snoop embodies the timeless values of the 19 Crimes rogues who came before him. 19 Crimes Snoop Dogg Cali Red Wine is a full and dense California red wine blend with strong black & blue fruit notes up front from the Petite Sirah, complemented by bright red, slightly candied fruit in the background from the Zinfandel. The darkly toasted oak ties it all together along with a slightly sweet finish. Pair this Cali Red Wine with rich meaty dishes.

My Review: Really dark in color and bold aroma of fruits like cherry, blackberry and strawberry. In terms of taste, it tasted like black cherry with a hint of chocolate. I had steak with it which paired very well and extenuated the taste of the steak.  I like Snooptoo so I would 100% try this wine again!
