1 person found it helpfulSep 10th, 2017Nice ruby in color with medium intensity and a pinkish rim.
Fruity nose of plums, cherries, raspberries, licorice, oak, blueberries, vanilla, vegetables, bitter herbs, wet leaves, spices, bell pepper, dirt, milk chocolates, smoke and black pepper.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity and nice legs.
Earthy on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, green pepper, oak, licorice, green vegetables, herbs, earth, chocolates, leather, tobacco, spices and peppercorn.
Nice length on the finish with round tannins and tangy cranberries.
This is a nice surprise from Costco. Very affordable and easy drinking. Needs an hour to open up properly and show some fruits and structure.
Not a big red, but rather an easy drinking, earthy French red wine.
Well balanced with mild complexity.
A good food wine. I paired it with hard cheeses, fresh berries and crackers.
A blend of 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

For $9 at Costco, this wine is amazing. Going back to get a few cases of it.

Mar 7th, 2021Less meaty funk and more berry goodness, but still yummy. A little too much fruit for my taste though. Too much grenache in the mix, not enough Mourvèdre/Syrah. Gimme blood and black pepper and bacon.
