Rich dark fruit, good acidity, some tannins initially that mellowed nicely in the glass. Not very complex but wasn’t expecting much at the $19 price. A straightforward food-friendly weeknight wine, a good pairing with a carne asada burrito.

Fruit-forward, with rich dark fruit on the nose and palate. Deep red tinged with purple. Uncomplicated but mouth-filling and satisfying, great QPR at $12 for everyday quaffing paired with meaty comfort food (BBQ, beef stew, chili, Italian sausage and tomato sauce)

Nicely balanced, Cab provides structure, Merlot offers roundness and lush dark fruit, with mellow tannins and a soft, long finish. Seems like it’s at its peak now, great with steak!
