Tasty and enjoyable, and rather dellicate for the blend types. Raymond put this together very well, with a deep purple color and a nose of come-hither black fruit and spice, which gently opens on the palate with blackberry, black rasberry & black current, and just the right mix of oak to balance the flavors. Soft mouthfeel, not cloying nor jammy, and a nice medium finish. Freindly with food, not over-grapey like so many of these blends. Easy to enjoy and a great QPR.

A nice blend that poured dark in the glass and smelled and tasted of dark fruit. Quite enjoyable for the price.

This wasn't as good as I remembered from the club wine tasting. I'm thinking I'll let the other bottle just lay awhile longer.

Lighter color with mild cherry nose. Simple fruit in the middle with very light tannins. Simple wine but enjoyable.
