Marvelous wine, would get more. With a little breathing it becomes very complex, consistently tasty through all it's evolutions, and long lasting for a very good savor on the pallet. Pair well with something that deserves it, or even enjoy the last glass on it's own.

Hideous, dumped down the drain. Chemicals and sugar attempting to make it fruit forward.

Very tasty and light wine. A nice one to have in stock to accompany a meal or sip a glass at the end of the day. A great table wine.

Nice fruit flavors right away no need to baby this one. Not much complexity but good everyday sort of wine

Lots of fruit, somewhat jammy with a dry middle and a sweet finish. Mild sweet tannin and fruit finish. A drinking wine rather than a savoring wine

Blind tasted 2012 Domaine La Blaque Coteaux de Pierrevert (89), 2012 Dreaming Tree Crush (87), 2012 Louis Martini Sonoma Cab (87). Id'ed the Blaque, but reversed the LM & DTree. La Blaque (90% Syrah, 10% Grenache Noir) was quite easily distinguished from the two mostly cabs. First tasted at Ristorante Luci's big wine dinner. Very good with food. A hint of CDP, but perhaps that was autosuggested. Drank well for days after opening. Dreaming Tree Crush, recommended by Mike L, …

Pleasant red table wine. Light-medium body. Rounded with plum and strawberry jam.

Good and round, but overly sweet for what seems to be a quaffable front and center. Cherry and vanilla notes with plump plums. Plump is a good work for this wine. It's a new word, I just decided.

Vin facile d'approche et facile à boire. Bon compagnon pour le BBQ. Vin rond avec une petite touche de sucre. Pas d'une grande complexité. Typique des blends americains bas de gamme avec son manque d'originalité.

A smooth blend with berries early and a smokey late flavor. A bit nondescript, but a solid table wine.

Fairly one dimensional but a solid QPR wine. Light to Medium body, a bit fruit forward, good heat. I'd say a bit off balance, but not significantly. The finish is lacking. There's better QPR wines out there, but worth trying to see if this suits your fancy as a daily driver. Drink now.

Fleming's Walnut Creek Fifty Tastes One Night. Nose of cherry fruit, touch of smoke, and pepper, more of the same on the palate, has all the red wine grapes except pinot noir blended together for a mélange of muted, mediocre flavors, medium body, and medium finish.

Dynamic. Sweet red. A good vino for a sweet drinker that's meandering towards darker, bolder experiences.

Really good for the price, and excellent right out of the bottle with no time to breathe. Tastes like mostly an even balance of Cab and Pinot, so it has a very drinkable, fruity character but is still rather tannic.
