Not bad, not good enough to repurchase.

Oddly perfume-like nose and flavor. Picking up rose flavors with thin finish. Odd wine and would not purchase again.

Very nice smoky note, not overpowering but not too subtle. Also not too dry but strikes a good balance. Black cherry and dark chocolate notes.

A little out of balance. Too sweet without enough acidity or tannin to back it up, even for a cali zinfandel. Not terrible but there are better wines in the sub $15 sin space
