Violeta, cherry and cranberry. In my opinion Tanins are equilibrated, and it was a nice surprise of a wine. Doesn’t taste cheap, and it would be something I would bring to a fiends party in which you wanna bring something pleasant

Plum open. Bit of ripe red fruit

Nose:youthful and pronounced aromas typical new world, ripe red berries, capsicum, nype, diverse aromas from blend Mouth: dry, medium acid, m tannins, juicy texture, high alcohol and body, medium- fruit concentration and length Conclusion: Some off bitter tastes in the mouth, lacks fruit, maybe better with food.

A nose of some dark fruits and spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied kitchen sink blend, with black cherry, plum, licorice and spice on finish, a easy drinker. www.winelx.com

A great first place (2nd division) wine. Serious nose. A little bit of many of the major food groups. Dark fruits were satisfying. Finish was short. A very favorable taste vs. price ratio. Perfect Tuesday wine.

This is a table wine that benefits setting by for 2-3 years!

Mixed red/black fruit and balsamic aromas. The palate matches, adding a hint of meat. Light tannins/acid - tasty and quaffable, drink now.

Too jammy

Still a good QPR but preferred the Ninth shebang. Same notes as before.

Mix of dark and red fruit, namely cherries, dark berries and plum. A little sweetness, some oak presence. A crowd pleaser that no one will rave about, but most will enjoy.
Taster #6171 · Jul 20, 2017
Dark black fruit. Somewhat vapid mid palate, and then the finish. ONe could ask for more.
Taster #6171 · Jun 27, 2017
Red blend with a ton of things, kinda serious, kinda ...

Great QPR
Taster #6171 · Jun 6, 2017
Zinfandel, Carignan, Petite, and then a whole lot more including some whites for aromatics. Some salty red fruit in there. And maybe a touch of fake oak on it as well.

Soft and mellow, just really easy drinking. Licorice and allspice on the nose, big fruit. Good value.

Delicious crowd-pleaser. Enough complexity to keep it interesting. Won't provoke transcendent experiences but will bring a smile to many faces.

Medium ruby red. A touch savory on the nose with a touch of greenery. Jammy too with tight dark berries and a little bit of cinnamon and vanilla. Moderate tannins (5/10) and low plus to medium bodied. Jammy on the palate with bramble berries and packed with black cherries. A touch perfumey too. A little metallic in the medium finish. Drink till 2019.

Graphite, licorice and dark cherry and plum. Bright fruit with a dusty, drying finish.
Taster #4008 · Feb 13, 2017
Deep bramble with some herb. Dense and dry on the palate. Not sugary crap, America needs more accessible wines like this

Great QPR. Nice perfume of plum, black cherry, some flowers? Palate offers more black fruit, some blue fruit aromatics (concord grape, blueberry), as well as some baking spice, smokiness and savory qualities. Tastes like a zin plumped with grenache... which made it give an impression of sweetness that was a bit much for me, but the others at the table really liked this.

Very approachable red blend. Not much of a nose on opening, but smooth on the palate and broad, red fruit.

Consumed over 3 days, sealed screwtop and refrigerated, note from day 3. Nose: Medium expressiveness, cranberry, black berry, brush, and pine needles. Palate: Red fruit attack, good balance, creamy mouth-feel, blue fruit and spice lift through the mid-palate, spice and brush characteristics show up in the back-end and eventually overtake the creaminess in a medium-plus length (30+ seconds) finish. Dollar for dollar I don't think you'll find a better bargain anywhere in the wine world.

mainly old vine Zinfandel

Dark scarlet. Nose shows mostly plums, black cherry, grilled meat, smoke, and pepper. Not a lot of structure, but pleasant easy drinking. Not one to overthink.

A fine, multi faceted, wine. Quaff away. Thanks Bedrock!
Taster #0328 · Nov 19, 2014
syrah nose, zin body. Quite sweet. Good complexity and length.

Jammier and more black fruits than the 7th. Good value and blend overall, interesting style differences. My wife preferred 6, I prefer 7.

Unscrewed and poured. Restrained blackberry aroma. Attractive red fruit flavors with slight sweetness and a bit of bramble. Spicy cassis finish. Balanced, firm, good flavors, stylish, not complex. Classic field blend style, and a great value. Reminds me of Gallo Hearty Burgundy from 30+ years ago, and that's a compliment.

I can sense the Bedrock-ness here, but it's definitely a cheap cousin to the real Bedrock wines.

The simplest term that comes to my mind is "cheap wine". It was rich and spicy, possibly Zin as others have said. The alcohol was hot, and it was quite unbalanced. Glad I only have one more. Maybe I'll open the next one and let it sit a day as others have said, but I doubt it's getting better.

Sweet blackberry on the nose. The sweetness continues on the palette but works with the other flavors. This would make a great crowd pleaser wine.
Taster #1966 · Jun 17, 2014

Black cherry and black raspberry fruit right up front. Think Jolly Rancher. A touch on the sweet side for my palate, but a well made wine and a good value for what it is. A touch of licorice on the finish, this will work for an accompaniment to burgers etc. on the deck this summer. Not a wine to cellar or overthink; just enjoy now for what it is.

I was pleasantly surprised with this one. It is a great table wine, and makes for a good sipper around dinner. A nice floral nose to this one, and the palate is just a little savory.

PnP, on friday as an after-dinner sipper. Same profile as last bottle with a little frizante almost on the initial pour. Actually not bad on day 2...Has some character to it...
Taster #7047 · Mar 20, 2014
Screwed-and-poured and detecting perhaps a little spritz, which blows off quickly. Nice spicy red-fruited zinfandel profile but backed by some amount of plums and slight smokiness. Lush fruit and mild tannins, backed by a little bit of French oak on the finish, great everyday drinker for the price.

Sulfur on the nose for the first few hours is a little off putting. Some salinity reminiscent of Syrah. Much preferred on day two. Excellent value.

PnP and had with Chinese food (spicy beef). Big wine packed with fruit an spices, interesting that it almost had a frizzante. Was not cohesive, was kind of all over the place. Did not enjoy as much as I have enjoyed earlier cuvees

Inky nearly opaque color with candied red fruit and a bit of pepper aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, and off-dry with inviting and black pleasing cherry, black raspberry, baked blackberry and spice flavors and medium finish For the first time this multi-vintage blend has an “Old Vine Cuveé” designation with 92% of the fruit coming from vineyards that were planted before 1922. A blend of 60% Zinfandel with the remainder of the wine being a blend of Carignan, Alicante …

Much better than expected. Enjoyably, with fine tannins and spice.

Fun. Spicy. A CdR with Zin spice, but without tasting obviously Zin'y. Well done.
Taster #2255 · Jan 17, 2014
First night, with pizza: Very flavorful, semisweet and fruity, with black cherry and blackberry, somewhat jammy, a little peppery, some chocolate and cola notes. Pretty fragrant, more savory in the nose with some meatiness and garlic? Medium acidity and some soft tannins. A little high strung and unbalanced. Will probably get better with time. Third night: a little softer and better integrated, still very fruity, particularly raspberry, cola, very nice with burgers.

A great everyday wine. Nice bright red color. The blend is remarkable. Lots of pepper notes from the syrah and zin. An enjoyable fun wine that really delivers at an unbelievable price.

Grenache/Zin/Carignane/Syrah? Your guess is as good as mine, but I like this wine. Best cuvee yet. Medium body, semi sweet, bright red fruits, bramble. Nice acids. A fun, not so serious wine. Drank as a pop and pour.

Great table red. Light like a pinot, spicy like a zin and Syrah. Kirsch and fruit punch on the nose. Featherlight body. White pepper and bright fruit. Gentle, capricious tannins show up at the end

A light floral note with a little structure. Medium finish. Nothing to get too excited about. Plenty of others out there at the same price point. I have another bottle i will let cellar for a while to see if it improves.

This was fruity and tasty. It smells like rhone wine, but shows little more fruit and sweetness on the palate. A good value, it is rare to find an interesting CA wine in this price range. 87-88

Decent blend for the price. Black cherry, a hint of spice. Would I buy it again? Probably not, but it was a nice bottle to try.
