This widely available Toyota Corolla of reds is, as almost always, a flavorful, good value. Not the most fragrant wine, but delivers lots of ripe, concentrated flavors in a very soft, easygoing style. 60% Grenache/40% Syrah.
Nearly fully-saturated black ruby with still some violet glints. Reluctantly gives up subtle aromas of ripe blackberries and smoky sandstone. Concentrated rich fruit fills the mouth. Dark blackberry and scorched earth flavors. Loads of reasonably fine-grained (for a $12.99 wine) tannins. Long, clingy, if not very complex finish. This is a very good value. B/B+. Got this at Whole Foods in Arlington.
