*#3 in The Top 100 Best Buys of 2014* This dry red blend is as sophisticated, structured and balanced as many high-end Cabernets. Made from old vine Zin, with Syrah, Cabernet and Petite Sirah as well, it has a deep, exotic aroma of dark fruit plus cedar and cardamom. The flavor is richly fruity, the mouthfeel is firmly textured and the finish lingers nicely. It's medium bodied and full-flavored.

A great quaff, with lively raspberry and caramel aromas that lead to jammy, easygoing flavors of cherry and sweet spice. Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Drink now through 2017. (Web-2014)

For this price and quality get outta town! This is going to be everyone's bring-to-a-party pick and not get nervous about everyone gulping it down immediately, and not embarrassed about bringing a sub-$10 wine either! This is a Zin-based red blend that is juicy and full without being cloyingly sweet. It retains balance and gets you in the mood...to drink more!

Notes

This blend of Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah is aged for 18 months in American and French oak. Intense, dark fruits with notes of vanilla and anise and a juicy, lingering finish. An outstanding value!
