I cannot believe I'm about to say this, but I loved this wine. Soft, very round, luscious raspberry/cherry and vanilla up front with a slight chocolate finish. Has a moderate alcohol content, but tastes hotter than labeled. Overall, phenomenal value for everyday drinking. Had with an herb roasted pork tenderloin and roasted broccoli and went great with it.

Justin says it had a forgettable fade away, but thought it was very drinkable and fruity. Will def drink again at large parties. Drinks like an avg $8 bottle.

For 4 bucks, it sure pleases a crowd. Got to love Trader Joes.

Especially for a $4 bottle! Delicious and surprisingly complex.

Not bad. Nice color, initial depth of flavor. Berries but not a fruit bomb. Disapates quickly and not a ton on the back end. But not bad for the price. ETA: better day 2.

Fairly dark in the glass. Not much aroma. Candy and ‘sweet’ ripe fruit punch flavors. Fruit forward. Emergency only type of $4 wine.

Though the price of $4 is very appealing, I did not enjoy it as much as other reviewers. Definitely drinkable. But I am going to explore other sub $5 wines at Trader Joe’s before I pick up another bottle of this wine.
