2019 Malbec for my birthday. Very good. Medium bodied but rich in flavor. Very smooth. Dry finish but not too dry. The light sweetness balances the dryness. Very easy to drink. Such a nice bouquet while red meat cooking in the background. It is a little tart but it’s so enjoyable I can overlook all the ‘little things’. I’m a sweet red girl myself. I would drink it with friends but wouldn’t buy it myself. I do recommend it tho. Enjoyable 🍇 — 8 days ago

I think the description on the bottle says it all. Definitely a young wine. Can taste the slight bitterness of the grapes. Very floral on the nose but there is a rich undertone of berries as well. Easy to drink but not to the point of losing the sultry rich beginning and beautiful dark ruby color. Very light tannis. Does contain sulfates :( — 8 months ago

Interesting wine. Not bad just not my favorite. Smells amazing. Was too simple/lacking in flavor when I first sipped. Thought with the nose it had, my tongue was going to sing. Then tart blast straight to the back of my teeth. Nice, sweet and crisp don’t get me wrong. But I really think this one needs to breathe for a bit. Was better the next day. Maybe it’s too complex for my palette. It does leave a nice after. I would recommend it to try but with a warning. Not a wine for everyone. One to pair with items. Try it and let me know what you think. — a year ago

I really like this brand. The merlot is my favorite so I thought I’d try the cab. Was very happy with it. Smelled great. Spicy but berry sweet at the same time. Good flavor n not too dry. I prefer sweet over dry and I got both from this bottle. Rich with cherry and left the enamel on my teeth 😉 Very easy to drink and a good wine with dinner and a friend. — a month ago

Wow 😍 I’m ready to buy a case. Fabulous 💖 crisp but simple sweet flavor. Tart at the end with the orange notes. Very fun and a good one to keep on hand for fruit n cheese moments. Pinky’s up ❣️ — 2 months ago

Very nice red blend. Tastes like a Chianti. Sweet and slightly dry. Alluring aroma. Easy to drink. I love sangrias so this is great for me. I don’t care for dry wines so this gives me the sweet I like but with a light dry after and a slight linger. Very good wine 👍🍇👏 — 9 months ago

Nice red for sure. Very nice on the nose. Was a little too sweet the first couple sips but then balance out. Prob should have let it breathe a bit. That being said, flavorful beginning with a dry and smoky after. Almost spicy. Very enjoyable. I would drink it again. — a year ago

I was given this as a gift. Beautiful packaging. Unfortunately the wine is absolutely horrible. I mean horrible. I tried mixing it with fruit juice and it was still awful. Other than a candle holder it’s worthless. Don’t waste your money. — a month ago

I was so impressed with this wine. Then I read the reviews. Not sure why it’s not receiving more love. I found it fabulous. Smells like cherries n plums. Tart then sweet. Was sitting there thinking about the flavor then realized it had a chocolate/mocha after taste. Some wines say this but this one was the first to deliver. Was rich n delicious. I absolutely love this wine. Not one to just drink frivolously. This wine is a good one to savor and enjoy. It is rich so I do recommend eating before or with. Enjoy! — 2 months ago

Enjoyable. Sweet but not over the top. Tart but not in a bitter way. Body but not tongue coating. An interesting blend. I think this is a good wine to share with someone/conversation piece. Wouldn’t necessarily pair with a meal. Flavors better with cheese n crackers. One to try and form your own opinion. — 10 months ago
