  Dark garnet color and medium full body, firm, bright expressive black berry and black currant fruits are accented by some red fruits, herb notes and hints of black olive tapenade on a lingering moderate tannin laced finish.

  Better on Day 2 or 3!; 6/2/2022-7/5/2022 (3 Day Wine Review World Headquarters, Minneapolis, MN): Day 1: This is by far the best of the Frederick's I purchased at closeout pricing. Cherry, blueberries, menthol, spice, pepper and cigar. This is drinking really well now and should be consumed in the next few years. 92 points
  Day 2: Not as intense as day 1 and features tobacco, plum, cherry, menthol and spice. Still solid and medium finish. 90 points
  Recommendation: Pop and pour and enjoy. Drink now.

  P of same fruits with plum.
  I would drink this now as the fruit was riper than I expected.....

  Took about 1 hr for this to open up, and then the strawberry’s came out to play! Some menthol in the finish, but soft tannins and medium bodied. Very easy drinker and we easily polished off this bottle for a Friday night with brisket.

  Day 2: This is not that good of a wine and Spring Valley is not a winery I would recommend when there are so many better ones for less. Heavy wine with earth, oak, muted fruit. Bitter finish. Glad I picked these up for under $30 a bottle. 87 points
  Day 3: Even worse. 84 points
  Recommendation: On newer vintages buy one bottle of Spring Valley and if you like it buy more.
