If this wine were a football team it would be Wales. Every player firing on all cylinders, working well together - and playing surprisingly well - but narrowly missing out on delivering that final blow.

My new favorite wine under $10. A steal for eight bucks. Juicy, mellow, and tasty red fruit.

Was very interested in the blend. Touriga + Syrah. Ended up being a very nice value wine. The Syrah characteristics did dominate.

Great inexpensive recommendation - jammy fruits with a little pine/oak finish.

A very soft and flavorful cheap weekday dinner wine. Smoky, gravelly, plummy scents. Rich and full, but a bit simple in the mouth. Nicely balanced.
