Agree with MR21CBS here. Purchased 1/2 case of this from Lastbottlewines.com 7/2013, wish I had gotten more at the $7 price tag. Complex, "6 grapes" blend, works great on its own as a weeknight wine and equally fantastic with a Saturday night meal. Love the synthetic cork in this bottle, nicely bottle aged and zero sediment. I will be looking for newer vintages of this in the future and consider this a value at $10-12.

Solid cherry and blueberry nose. Took a long time for this to open up. Even when aerated on the first night, the fruit barely shined through the tannin and acidity. There was some good cherry buried under licorice and charcoal. The next night revealed some great spice and herbal qualities. Once it has opened up, it is a smooth food wine.
