Consistent with previous notes. This has become a house wine. It's got good balance, albeit leaning toward the fruit bomb. It tastes like good California juice, especially on a weekday when I just want a glass of red wine and don't want to think about it.

Consistent with my previous notes. Another good bottle. It's a little bit of a Zinfandel-like wine, with heavier fruit. Not a delicate wine by any means. However, I think it tastes great.

I really enjoyed this. It's sort of California in a bottle. It brings me back to the days of drinking cheap jug wines - however, this is many steps up from that. This tastes like a Northern California red field blend, strongly fruit-forward, but done with integrity and care. The price is right as well. It would likely be too fervent for pairing with delicate meals; it drinks well on its own or with burgers, sausages, etc., although it actually went surprisingly well with some vegetarian split pea soup.

Good. Big, pithy, fruity. Stands up well to steak. Judicious oak for the style. Worth a re-buy.
