13.5% abv. Picked this up at the local grocer. Very fragrant on the sniff test, taste of cherry and light oak, with a smooth finish. The best part is it was on sale for $6.99. You can't beat that with a stick. Enjoyable value wine.

Had this at Firebirds in Yardley. It was ok but wouldn’t get it again.

Too dry or tangy or strong or something! Didn't care for it. Not a smooth drink.

Easy drinking, smooth, and a little buttery for a Pinot noir

Very smooth overall with strong cherry and lavender notes. Just a very subtle and quiet wine

Apple taste at first but then pretty dry. Not bad for $7.59 at golden eagle.

Always on hand. Sipping this cool September evening while waiting for the NFL season opener.
