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.
