Michael & David wines all taste similar to my palate. This is another over the top berry bomb with hints of vanilla and oak. The dominant flavor is muddled rich ripe berries. It's an easy drinking wine, but somewhat nondescript. At $16/bottle, I would expect more distinct flavors. For the difference in price, I'll stick with their 7 Deadly Zins, which although it has a slightly different flavor profile, leaves me with the same impression.

Deep carmine color with plum, smoke, eucalyptus and spice aromas. Light-medium bodied with firm tannins, and blackberry,plum, spice and vanilla flavors. Medium finish. Interesting blend of 21% Syrah, 18% Carignan, 18% Cinsault, 13% Tannat, 11% Souzou, 10% Cab Franc, 6% Mouvedre, 3% Petite Sirah
