Good, but a little thin and anonymous — gravel and lavender were the flavors I liked. No way no how worth the price! But always glad to try something new. — a day ago

Good fruit, good acidity, clear pomegranate (including the white rind!). Solid 90! I should downgrade my last 90 this is better. Good deal! 😀😀 — 15 days ago

No real notes, but thought it was pretty good. I remember some earthiness. Good deal for $10. Just squeaks into a 90. Worth trying again with more care. — 17 days ago

9.2

Always a good value and tasty! A little more balanced and less “mulled wine” than I recall from earlier vintages. — 10 days ago

Pop and pour through a decanter.


NOSE: a little Bordeaux toffee, dry wood, leaves…maybe a little paprika? Fruit is muted cherry.

TASTE: like the nose, wood, leaves, cherry. A little cedar, maybe some of the cherry. Nothing off about it, just tastes a little simple and thin. Tea like tannins. Fine for $7 or whatever I paid. Tastes honest. 88. — 19 days ago
