Orange brick; volatile pepper steak with green pepper nose; A true crowd pleaser! black fruit, slightly spicy, hints of green pepper, cedar and cinnamon. Very long fruity aftertaste. Fully-integrated tannins, excellent balance. Drinking so well that my non-wine-drinking mother actually asked for a second glass! Don't let it sit long in the glass or bottle, though.

Jammy, dark fruit and a little chocolate on the nose, blackberry, vanilla, some tannic bite initially, and a little bit of a flat finish. Good bang for the buck!

Fruit (cherry?) on the nose, dark ruby color with medium legs. Was surprised with how light and silky the mouthfeel is. Fruit up front, with coffee and oak on the end. Sort-medium finish. A lovey easy drinking Meritage for the price.

The wine looks Ruby colored. The legs are Medium. The body is Medium. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Short. No singular fruit smell or taste but fruity and plump in general. Very easy and smooth. Not much astringency.
