2013 Revelation, Contra Costa

The 2013 Revelation is rich, the nose is juicy and smells like a basket of red fruit and fruit pie spices. Candied red apple covered in chocolate and caramel is a high note, followed by hints of blackberries, red licorice, and pomegranate.  The Revelation is literally mouth coating, which contributes to the continually lingering cherry flavor of this wine. Cranberries are bright and juicy on the palate, along with ripe mission figs.  The wine finishes with a beautiful combination of vanilla and blueberries to round out the palate.
