Nice and juicy classic cdr. Blueberry, earth, spice, easy drinking for a Rhone. A bargain at $10 with the Safeway 40% sale.

Stylistically appealing house wine.

When Kermit Lynch creates a cuvée named after you (ok, so it's purely a coincidence), you buy it. When it's only $12/bottle, you purchase a lot of it. Red brambly fruit, dry grippy tannins, a little dirt on the finish. I'm quite impressed, but with Cypress in the name, it's hard not to be!

Blended by Kermit Lynch. OKay? Well, Kirch, dark red fruits and baking spice. Not super exiciting, but still pretty tasty. I rather have a wine not blended by Lynch, and that is just more exciting.

Not sure of the percentage, but there is a lot of Syrah in this

Medium body with delightful raspberry notes. Structure is a little off balance for me, with alcohol punching above its weight at least in the first glass. Very good value CdR.
