This medium dark wine shows plum and blackberry on the nose, with hints of black pepper and herbs. The palate brings those dark flavors amid a somewhat watery mouthfeel with medium-firm tannins. On the medium-long finish, those savory spice and herb notes come forward. I bought this for cooking, for which it was fine. It was decent as a sipper, but a little disappointing in aromas and flavors.

May 24th, 2022Pinot, not rhone. Simple. Cherry, strawberry, sweet herbs, sawdust and nice acid. Ok, good wine for $12.00.

Feb 10th, 2022Good solid Rhône - easy drinking smooth red. A nice bouquet on the nose greets you on the way in and tapers into a sharp finish, medium body along the way - nice table red.
