Very dark color, slightly purplish. Nose of black fruits, game, spices, wet wood. Medium plus body. On the palate - medium body, high acidity, intense and relatively complex flavors of black fruits, still very astringent. Good wine, especially for funny price of $14 and has a chance to get much better in 2 or 3 years. Will buy couple of more of these and let them rest for some time.

Nice spice, reasonably balanced alcohol, short length. Not bad. 86

I've liked their Cab and their Rose and was disappointed: all pepper and alcohol. No one liked it, either right away or after a 30 minute decanting.

Cherry, balanced oak and tannin. Slightly hot alcohol finish. I've had be but no complaints here, especially for $12 @ Trader Joe's.
