Young yes, not as savory as some but a delicious quaffer none-the-less. Cedar wood, dusty strawberries, touch of barnyard, medium tannins-great package for the price

Great value, better after a bit of open-time for sure.

Not too bad. Fairly one dimensional with notes of blackberry, vanilla, tobacco. Nose isn't great, but it's good with food.

Medium body. Elegant and nuanced. Dark fruit dominant.

Not the best one we've tried. Underwhelming nose, not as good as others. Probably won't buy it again.

Straightforward and easy drinking red. Great value at $10.

A nice Grenache blend from Côtes du Rhône. Showing red and black fruits with wood, barnyard, light vanilla, earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf and peppercorn.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity. Spicy and tangy.

Dry on the palate and easy drinking. Simple and good right out of the bottle.

A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah.

I paired it with a charcuterie board and light appetizers.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

85 points.

Smells a little like leaves and cherries. Not an impressive nose. Taste is smooth, light-medium weight, some strawberries, a little bitter tannin and black tea. Not bad, but not worth the $11.69 I paid for it, won’t buy again.

Nose is unremarkable. I quite like the earthly notes. Not too bold and nicely balanced tannins. Goes down smooth with a decent finish. $15
