The "bouquet" is worse than the taste, which isn't good. Plonk. Poured all but 2 oz down the drain.

big fruit -- Cherries, a bit of mocha and a lot of sweetness. The finish is fruity with a full mouth and a mild tannin and short-med length . A consistent beginning wine and easy drinker

“Discover California’s Wines”, Wine 12 (non-blind): The wine was medium to dark ruby, almost purple in colour and offered ripe dark fruit, tea, spices, clove and cream on the nose – in fact, the wine smelled a lot like the caramel cream tea I used to drink when I was teenager! On the palate the wine showed ripe fruit, caramel, tea and spices, with medium-level acidity, medium-minus tannin, a good mouthfeel and good length. The medium- to light-bodied, semi-dry wine …

A good surprise from California, a four grapes wine.

Woody with strawberry, vanilla, and plum. A touch jammy but a lovely $11 bottle.

Opened and decanted two hours. Some sediment. A fascinating wine. Very chocolate to start with dark fruit. Reminiscent of some Penfolds wines. Almost different flavours. Is it multi layerd or disjointed. I thought multi layerd, but I'm sure it will divide the crowd.

Agree. Chocolate cherry wine. Excellent cheep value wine that pairs good with daily dinner.

an almost Welch's grape quality. Cherries and chocolate. Sweet and cloying with no balance. Barely drinkable.

Interesting, starts off dark but a little chocolatey just out of the bottle. Aroma is closed off, but what's there is good to me. As it opens up, the fruit comes out and the sweetness becomes a little overbearing.

Not really a wine ... can't say exactly what it is. Very round and smooth, not as sweet as expected from other reviews (but nevertheless - too sweet for a "normal" wine). Your mileage may vary ...

Same as other TN's from other vintages. A big fruit, tasty chocolate and cherry wine. Just a nice wine for consuming, with just a bit more sweetness than I would prefer.

Drank in Cambridge I don't know what this was but it was really strange. Very processed and very sweet.

This wine has a nose of red clay and earth. The finish is smooth and nutty with slight tannins as well as a bit of residual sweetness on the palate. Easy drinking alone or with a pizza.

Nariz: predominante frescos frutos rojos, ligero toque a Vainilla y Mantequilla, con un caramelo invasor. En Boca: tan dulce que parece artificial, casi como un Late Harvest. Podría funcionar para mujeres que incursionan en los tintos.

This dark wine has more than a hint of complex flavors. I expected this wine to be thin for the price but, was pleasantly surprised. This is one of the best tasting wines under $10.
