I am enjoying it and yet its a little too warm and slightly too chewy and sweet. Smooth and easy, perhaps too easy. #napa #bordeauxblend

Fun blend of 50 Merlot/25 Cab Sauv/20 Syrah and 5 Zin. You can absolutely appreciate the spiciness of that little bit of zin on the nose and the palate. Bright, lively and refreshing. It appears to be a heck of a good value drinker @ $20. Can tell there won’t be a leftover glass tonight. 👍🏻

Very good just not great. Prefer a little more bold and complex. Paid $20, so it's a great deal.

Cabernet, Zin, Syrah, and Merlot blend. Rated relative to price and region of origin this is a super fun wine.

A terribly good blend to be shared with any food from grilled meat to pizza…perfectly, light pepper, sturdy, leathery, very little jam for a blend…drinks way above its rate and price point. Delicious….
