Super fun, syrah dominant Rhรดne style blend that really delivers a lot of bang for the buck. Just rich and satisfying enough for a hearty meal, but more of a cheerful quaffer. Into it ๐ŸŒ„๐Ÿ—๐ŸŒฟ

Visited Joostenberg at Harvest last year and the estate was so beautiful! It was awesome to pick this up in my neighborhood in San Francisco at Canyon Market! Tasty value!

A very easy wine on the pallet. Not that acidic or tannic. A hint of sweetness , with plums

Pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a red at this price. Easy going down and not real memorable. No complaints.
