Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Deep ruby red with dark core, the sun-drenched Sonoma County fruit in this red blend has produced a big, opulent, yet fresh style of wine that's perfectly suited for enjoying at the table or fireside with good company. A unique blend of Zinfandel, Malbec, and Cabernet, that showcases not only the diversity of these different varietals, but the complexity that's achieved when they're assembled together. Dark berries, fresh baked raspberry scones, eucalyptus, and smoky bacon on the nose. Its velvety smooth texture shows a great balance of refreshing dark fruit and integrated soft tannins, with smoky dark cherries persisting on the finish. This big Sonoma red has not only the finesse of an Angel but the power of a Cowboy, making it a terrific choice to enjoy with close friends. Summer BBQ fare including charcoal grilled beef are top of my list to enjoy with Proprietary Red. Tasted March 2017. 92 points. Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca
From Sonoma County, Cannonball's Angels & Cowboys Proprietary (2014) red is a wine blend of Zinfandel, Malbec and Cabernet. Angels & Cowboys is a joint effort between the founders of Cannonball Wine Company, Yoav Gilat and Dennis Hill and Californian graphic artist, Michael Schwab. The aim of the collaboration is to make rule-breaking, down-to-earth wines. The nose on this wine is perfumed cherries, chocolate and spice. Great with grilled steak and hard cheeses. - Community Wine Reviews
