Going Rogue

TASTING NOTES: “The deep purple garnet of this wine compliments the aromatic background of wildflowers, a hint of pipe tobacco, and strawberry cotton candy. The palate adds notes of red plum and soft leather. We utilize the same small lot, hands-on techniques traditionally used to produce the world’s finest wines.” (AbV 14.4%, pH 3.65, TA 6.5 g/L, RS 1.0 g/L)

VARIETALS: 98% Malbec, 2% Merlot

BARRELS: 2 months in new French oak, 8 months in neutral.

PAIRS WITH: N/A

THAT REMINDS ME OF: I was thinking irises at first, either the flower or the part of your eye. Probably would have a wider audience of interest…

So the Rogue is one of the original nine character classes in World of Warcraft. Sporting leather armor and an array of short-range, dual-wielded melee weapons like daggers and axes, the Rogue specializes in ambushing targets, stunning them, and then delivering a flurry of attacks that eviscerates their prey before they can even react. The Rogue can literally go invisible, only appearing when they strike or are struck. The more attacks they land, the more combo points they build up to be spent on powerful finishing blows.

Very scary to fight, but if you catch them before they catch you or survive their assault, they lack the defensive abilities of other close-range fighters, which makes them rather vulnerable.
