$8.09 from The Wine Steward club, 14.4%. I'm conflicted about this wine. One one hand, it's flavorful and balanced, but on the other hand the flavor is marred by clumsy oak and a charry note. Big but not oozy or jammy. Not a bad match with grilled lamb chops, and my wife likes it more than I do, pouring herself another glass. Still a good value and overall Good+.

For a $10 bottle you can't beat this blend. Nose of fruit and hints of pepper. Smooth tannins with a moderate length finish.
