July 10, 2011 - Popped and poured. Had a glass while watching a movie. Deep dark color. Dusty blackberry, boysenberry and dark cherry on the nose. Taste is ripe tart boysenberry with black tea, bitters and olive juice. Substantial tannins and a bit of alcohol creeps in between transition from mid to finish. Interesting sub $10 bottle. Would buy again.

March 20, 2011 - Pours dark ruby red, looks good in the glass. Delicious notes of sweet cherry and fresh flowers in the nose with undertones of zesty spice and smoke. Light bodied with a bit too much tannin; but besides that it's got good fruit flavor and a mild, jammy finish.
Overall... a bit rough but with good flavor. nice table wine. a good value at $10 US or less
