See previous notes from 10/14/12. Lost the initial harshness, but the rest is still accurate. It's inky, but not that interesting. Won't buy again. 82-83 pts.

It is what you should expect from a $12.00 Syrah. Not much, but easy to drink if you just have to have a quick glass and want to refrain from opening something of significance.

Some dark blue & blackberry, but not a smooth or well-integrated / balanced wine. A bit harsh initially, certainly opaque, and with a dry finish. I love a great Petite Sirah, but in this case settled for a somewhat decent glass of wine. Spend a little more and love what you're drinking. I'd say this is fine for company or the masses, but Petite Sirah is often a little too much for those that aren't INTO wine. Weekday wine for sure.

Dark, rich dark nose with hints of chocolate. Smooth with some complexity.

Not much complexity. Fine, but nothing special.
