During my search for a cheap spicy zin for grilling, this wasn't it. Very fruit forward, no complexity which is somewhat expected at this price point, but was hoping for something I would at least consider buying again...not this.

Had the 2008 box wine but the 2010 is just 'slightly' better. I don't remember much about the aromas. More spice flavors than previously - especially clove and some cinnamon - paired with still slightly sweet raspberry and cherry notes, some wet forest floor, and subtle tannic finish; pepper notes are still missing. Decent for everyday but not my style of Zin.
