Strong strawberry and raspberry jam notes, medium tannins and a little smoke. Not a bad wine for $6.99, and would pair well with burgers or other BBQ fare.

Dark berries, musty earth/leaf. I also detect a touch of caramel and sweet baking spices (nutmeg?). Lush mouthfeel with rich berry flavors. Long finish. Fantastic for the price.

Blackberry, smoke, earth and pepper on the nose. Same on the palate which just got smoother as the night went on. Additional notes of meat and vanilla along with the ripe fruit and spice. Long finish. Lacks depth in the midpalate, but elegant and flavorful for the price.

Martin Scott Portfolio Tasting 2008 (East Side of Central Park, NYC): N: Strawberry jam! smokiness, blueberry and darker fruits. P: Not super long. Some oak, a little green stickiness on the tannins. Retails under $10!!!!! Super QPR.
