It's a lite every day wine, some cherries. It reminds me of a house wine at Earls Restaurant. The good thing is, I didn't pay restaurant prices. $14.00 Canuc Buck, says I will not buy this again. This is a $9 at best.

Good. Somewhat restrained which I prefer to overly fruity. Nice chalky minerall notes. Not much on the nose though. Slight peppery meaty flavors combine with red fruit and earth. Nice for the price.

color: raspberry jello, before it sets; nose: a little oak; taste: medium-bodied mouth feel, subdued cherry taste, chalky pepper-chocolate finish weighed down by green tannins; overall: disjointed pour that lacks a hoped-for fruity ripeness, reminds me of a gangly teenager whose limbs don't quite work well together, better shiraz alternatives can be had for the same $11 tariff (e.g. Jip Jip Rocks)

Good, not great. Drank it with a 2010 Crios Cab, and Crios was much better, richer and had more body.
