Bold fruit with a pleasing soft finish. A bit of sweetness that is slightly too pronounced for my taste, but still a nice wine. It's a smooth wine that will please many, especially if you're a novice to reds.

Syrah & Grenache dominate. High heat with soft aroma of crushed violets. Petite Sirah lends its deep inky color and gritty mouthfeel. Ripe & round. Mild unsavory green quality on the finish.

Very fruit forward. The tannins almost make it balanced but the dense fruit definitely wins the battle. Not much acid to speak of, if your into ripe/overripe this is for you

This 2012 is full of blackberries, black cherries, and black currants. The tightly woven tannins and pleasant spice do add some balance to this wine. I suspect this wine can have broad appeal.

Good with red meat. Bought this for $20. Would buy again, but not my favorite. Richer, deeper taste. Is stronger at 15.2%

Too dry and didn't get any of the tasting notes. Maybe needs to breathe for an hour or 2?
