A blend of Merlot, Malbec, Syrah, Zinfandel, and some other stuff too. Ruby in color, purple at the rim. The nose is nice. Cherries, dark cherries, spice, chocolate and pepper. Also some leather. On the palate, there is some varietal complexity. Not a ton of depth but width. Easy to drink. Firm tannins. Probably better drunk in the next few years to enjoy its vibrancy. It retails for under $25 and that is a fair price. This is one of those fruit forward, kitchen sink wines that are popular right now and this competes with them and beats most on price. Attractive, silk screened label.
