The Federalist Honest Red Blend 2017 Review

It's a big ol’ high alcohol wine with a bunch of fruit. The heat of the wine defines everything on your nose and palate. It roasts the perception of fruit, making it a bit prune like. It’s under $20 and has a place at a tailgate party, or big rager where wine is not the focus.
