Very well made value wine, easily a Best Buys candidate. Very Rhone like, rustic, dark fruit and blackberry, red berry, spice, coffee, shrooms and a touch of mint. Really tasty and I like the coffee nuance in this blend. Rather complex for the price and fun to sip and notice how the wine changes over time. 13.8% Alc/Vol. $9.99
