Dueling Pistols 2016 Review
This wine is soft and powerful. It has a luscious, juicy core with tannins that are so woven in you won’t feel them but know they're there when they whisper to you in the finish. It’ll definitely pair well with some roasted chicken or steak, but damn, I dunno that might take away from the wines awesome.
