Good QPR. A bit hot and the tannins are still hiding the fruit just a bit. Nice long finish. Great with pizza.

Strong berry/plum flavors and acidity on the nose. Too sweet and jammy for my taste.

Very jammy and sweet. Decent body. Good for a night drinking with a movie, worth every penny.

Bought the bottle for 2 reasons: a) the initial smell was very nice and b) the label reminds me of my Dad and his best friend, Cali Girl. Overall, the taste was not at all what I was expecting for the aroma. Ok for $9...not one I would recommend for entertaining guests.
