  Closest comparison is a Cotes du Rhone. Very well done, and was ready to drink upon opening. This is very well done, excellent wine for the price.

  Smoky, not extremely complex, but amazing at this price. Tannins are a little rough but it is young and will age well.

  This deep ruby wine is a blend of 67% Syrah, 31% Mourvèdre and 2% Viognier. Dominated by smoked meat, it adds undertones of earthy black cherries, bittersweet chocolate and dried herbs. Medium-bodied, freshly acidic and with medium sweet tannins, it shows no heat from its 14.5% alcohol (assuming served at 60-65°F). Although the middle palate density is marginal at best, it closes with a finish of respectable length. While not necessarily a wine in the upper echelon, this is a very respectable offering for the price. Drink now-2022.

  Another excellent bottle at a great price. Plenty of fruit and even some smoke and spice.
