Not sweet at all. Still very crisp. I imagine much more of a European style of wine.

Not terribly impressed. It may have been too cold. We ran it through the aerator. It was very upfront. High alcohol content. Maybe we should have decanted it more traditionally??

I liked the bottle of Vindication much better.

Not really my thing. I had two bottles and was not very impressed. Maybe it needs to age a bit.

Fruity smell, but not crazy about the taste. Not sure I get the hype. Maybe I got a bad bottle. For $10, I will retry in the future.

Popped the box and ran it through the Vinturi. It is wholy unremarkable. Not offensive by any means, but just blah. I expected a bit more punch for a Shiraz. Maybe it will open up after a couple of days, but I don't give it much hope.

Super sweet. When they say Jam they are not kidding. Tastes like something from church. Decent summer wine when cooking out. Not a lot of character.
