High toned blueberry purple berry fruit with hints of dusty cocoa. Very smooth and delicious. Fantastic QPR.

It's a blend of everything from Merlot to Malbec to Mourvedre, and all Cabs in between! It's a hearty, peppery blend with hits of berry and hints of leather. Would be good with lasagna or pizza.

Fruity, a little dry at end, good tannins, good body, not too watery. $13 at Costco
