Gundlach-Bundschu Estate Vineyard Mountain Cuvee 2018 Review

If you see it, buy it and don’t look back. If you can afford it, grab a case. This is one hell of an affordable American red blend. It has a soft and deep palate with plush fruit framed by prominent tannins. This bottle won’t weigh you down, but is not shy about its personality. It’s the kind of wine that will please a crowd, match a meal, or sit and chill with you and some snacks.
