Cheap, cheerful and above all, correct for the region. Great value and well-made. Perfect mid-week quaffer.

Both raspberry and blackberry in the nose. Nice fruit and light tannin.

A 2014 CDR, mostly Grenache, still quite fruity, spicy after it opens up more, with very purple color. Not too exciting but good for price.

Nice full bodied, moderately tannic. Like that it's mostly Grenache. Big, dry not fruity. Cherries if anything. Stale nose almost like a McDouble. Decent but doesn't excite.
