  November 2, 2023 - Crafted with 54% Syrah, 42% Petite Sirah, and 4% Souzao, this has a fragrant, medium-high intensity nose that is ripe and dark fruited with black plum, blackberry jam, and black raspberry aromas plus gentle oak spice and sweet vanillin notes. It's medium-full bodied with very ripe, sweet dark fruit, blackberry jam, black plum, and grapey flavours accented with black pepper spice, gentle oak, and touches of savoury earth. Fresh acidity tempers the slightly sweet flavour profile, while the broad, creamy tannins are smooth and refined. The dark berry and jammy flavours continue through to the long, gently woody finish.

  October 7, 2023 - Supermarket wine, right?
  
  Big, plush red with moderate tannins and moderate acidity. Relatively full in body. Lots of red and blue fruit, light coffee, and some baking spices. A little spicy and just a touch hot.
  
  Again, supermarket wine, but really good supermarket wine for the price. No one is buying this to contemplate over a glass. It's just delicious and great for what it is.

  February 2, 2023 - this M David wine wasn't liked by my taste buds. Other MD wines were good. May not try my luck again....

  October 25, 2022 - PAP yuck. After an hour in glass acceptable inexpensive Cab at BOGO deal. Would not pay full retail. Better cabs at that price.
  Their Petit Petit however is often on sale and a surprisingly good value for everyday red. IMO

  September 1, 2022 - Dark and fruity but seems to have a bit too much alcohol. Good value for the price.
