Last bottle, consistent with prior notes. There is a graham-cracker character that is pleasant alongside the cassis flavors. Not a deep wine, but a very solid value given the price and source.

A very nice wine for the price, I enjoyed it even more the second day. Definitely some bottle to bottle variation, which is not unusual, but the last two bottles were definitely a more balance wine than the first bottle sampled months ago.

I enjoyed this wine as it opened up. Good character, body, aromas, and fruit and tannin balance. Not overly complex, but a nice blend. I'd buy again for an everyday drinker and would be curious to see how this develops.

Consistent with prior note. Seems fairly upfront at first, but has sneaky layers and structure. Need to pick up more before TJs sells out.
