Tasting Notes: This red blend is such an incredible wine for the money. Perfect for your friends or family that like your big cellar wines, yet won’t break your bank. Flavors of blackberry and plum are surrounded by the gentle balance of tannin and acidity.

Our reviewers are given a topic (varietal, drinking occasion, price) six times a year and asked to select 3-5 wines that fit that criteria for review. Wine reviews include brief tasting notes, a rating and the wine’s retail price (which can vary from store to store and market to market). Unless noted otherwise, the price reflects a 750-ml. bottle. If you’re a beverage professional with a specialty in wine and you’re interested in participating in the panel, please contact managing editor Kyle Swartz at kswartz@epgmediallc.com or 203-855-8499 x2225.
