California Red Blend

Best under rated smooth fruity red blend easy drinker ;) I bought 2 cases - Trader Joe's.

I found his at Trader Joe's, as a part of some exclusive deal they have with the winery. It's a red blend and it's inexpensive, but I was surprised by it. It's a heavier wine, and it's a fruity and juicy-- I'm guessing there's a lot of Merlot in it but it doesn't say anything about it's content. Lots of red berries and a good amount of vanilla/buttery oak-- sort of a unsweetened raspberry cheesecake, if you will... Despite being pretty hearty it's pretty easy to drink. It's not exactly elegant (but I don't mean that pejoratively), it's suggested pairing is BBQ and Pizza.

This a very nice non vintage red wine blend. They put together some very complimentary wines and created a very drinkable wine at a great price. A little light on tannins and acid but if you're looking for a fruit forward jammy red, this should work for you!

Despite the off-putting petroleumesque smell, this wine is smooth with hints of raspberries and strawberries.

Drinkable table red. Nothing too special.

Trader Joe’s latest affordable collaboration does it again!

Surprisingly tasty.

Surprisingly oaky, needs more fruit character. Quite young but drinkable

It’s main virtue is the price ($2.99 Trader Joe’s) We’ve had worse.

Good inexpensive red. Not fabulous but rather pleasant drinking! More merlot than cab sav alas but winemaker know what they were doing for sure 😊
