Very smooth, cherry notes and consistent throughout. Would buy again and recommend. (One of Trader Joe's hidden gems).

8 vintage years later and this is still a good wine (had 2013 before). This one was a bit tart at the start…

Took a chance and bought a few of these at Trader Joe’s. Was worried about the California wildfires of 2020, influencing the flavor of the product, but no Smokey tones are in this batch. Very full bodied and rich, with jam and cherry, and a hint of tobacco. Good purchase!
