This bargain wine is medium dark ruby in the glass and displays a nose of strawberry, cherry, vanilla and oak spice. On the palate is angular, tart red fruit, stiff tannins and a fairly heavy dose of oak. It's faint praise to say that it's not horrible, but it's better suited to making sangria or serving chilled at a cookout than pairing with a meaningful meal.

Generic red wine - simple and straightforward, just a bit of oak so the modest fruit shines through. More umph on the palate than the nose with black fruit. Not much of a finish but at a cookout with about of Chill in it this would be a real crowd pleaser

Thiscwine would taste awesome with some chocolate, beef, or something slightly spicy. To drink it alone is just ok.

I like the label more than the wine itself, but makes for a nice conversation starter. Smooth to the end, with a one-note red berry/grape flavor. Probably goes best with sweeter, blander foods... Anything strongly seasoned will likely overpower this wine and turn it into a wallflower side beverage. (Addendum... Goes well with Dominican mangú!)

My favorite blend. So what if it's just a table red.

Not a bad wine for the price, a little sweet, but still good. I would buy it again
