Blackberry nose, some floral notes. Palate as nose, some earth. Very awkward, a whacked out finish. Bad, bad bitter. Rated this 80, but in light of other Novelty Hill wines I've enjoyed, I'm calling this flawed.

A nice red blend, plenty of fruit, well balanced with nice finish. Excellent value.

Very nice; rich, deep ruby fruit, but well balanced and focused; a very nice effort for a bottle under $20; Novelty Hill/Januik continues to impress.

Pretty good after it opened up a bit. Chocolate, black cherry and a little tobacco.
