This is a big wine. Had on a warm first summer evening. Get ready. It has a nice finish. Eat with pizza burgers or steak

Essentially a GSM, intense and powerful, yet still light on its feet. Enjoyable.

Came in a mystery box and for the price it was definitely a fun wine to drink.

Basically a Cote du Rhône from the Sierra foothills. This surprised me. Very very well-made and tasty wine. Not overripe, red fruit gets a bit candied with air, has some elegance. +1 point for great QPR (by California standards anyway)
