This is pretty much what you'd expect. Lots of ripe fruit, with a raspberry rhubarb thing going on. It's a simple, high alcohol, fruit bomb, but done well, and the price is lower then all the other field blend reds of similar quality. Would be perfect to serve at a party. I do hate the label though.

Smooth, no tannin bitterness, decent legs, hint of spice and oak. Great value for dollar!

Liked this as much as the 61. Blend of Syrah, Carignane, Grenache, Mourvedre and maybe more. Earthy and red fruit aromas jump out of the glass. Right out of the bottle, wine is very fruit forward, like a fruit bomb. With some air, wine turns elegant and finish gets longer as the fruit tempo evens out. Very smooth, almost fullbodied, mild tannins, screw cap, a great BBQ or party wine. Went perfect with BBQ Pork Ribs. Raspberries, cherries, cranberries, plums, …

A Syrah blend that has a sweetly tart flavor and admittedly short finish. I found this wine decent and drinkable now, a well made wine I would be proud to share and if a few bucks less than the $14 I paid, a possible steal. Not a show stopper, just a good middle of the week wine. I had it with BBQ brisket and cauliflower.

Decent aroma of red fruits, dark chocolate, and pepper. A slightly oily/buttery texture. A really short finish...followed by a rather unpleasant after-taste. Honestly, not a great bottle of wine. Most drinkers didn't get more than halfway through their glass...and no one went back for seconds.

Purple, clearing at the rim. Aromas of pepper and graphite. Nice acidity followed by cherries and blackberries, with a peppery finish. A bit disjointed, but hey, for a $10 wine there's a lot of interesting stuff happening. Very good with grilled dinner. B+
