Dark fruits, such as blackberry, black cherry, a touch of plum, some savoriness: cooked onion, lavender, mint, thyme, cinnamon, nutmeg, a bit licorice, med plus body, med to med plus acidity, med plus alcohol. Not too many layers but it's a decent wine at it's price point.

A bit four-square and sturdy but nice enough with something meaty and sturdy. Blackberries and damp, sooty earth.

Medium body, Syrah-Grenache blend with slight spice notes and lots of red fruit, ripe cherry and red plums. Nothing crazy and not funky for being natty. Perfectly fine fine for weeknight dinner
