Very hipster tattoo styled label. 52% Petite Verdot, 25% Cab Sauv, 23% Malbec. Dark, dark maroon color. Aroma is gravel and molasses. Maybe a hint of berry. Flavors are beefy and big. Lots of dried black cherry. Some molasses. Tannins are well represented. Has that classic Matchbook herbal streak. This went well with the lamb and mushroom dish I made. A great blend. Lots of zip and zing. Delicious. — 2 days ago

Very light color. Nose is strange. Maybe a hint of saline or ocean breeze. Has a little flavor. But it’s fairly subtle stuff. A berry side. It’s unique. A Pinot for the rose crowd. — 12 days ago

Big ole heavy bottle for aging. Striking label style. And 92 points! (Wine Enthusiast). Color is deep. Plum skins. Aroma of steak, soil and mulberry juice. Perhaps some wet mountain rocks too. Flavors are good. Classic cassis and plenty of rocks too. Pretty smooth operator. Classic Cal Cab experience. I’ve invested much more than the 6-7 bucks this was at grocery outlet for much less impressive Cabs. Well worth those 92 points. — 3 days ago

Lighter color. Hint of ruby. Slight aroma of spice box and cut cedar. Flavors are ok. Fairly blunt. Bit woodsy. Hint cherry. Very silky smooth. Goes down easy. Tannins on the finish. This is an everyday drinker. — 8 days ago

Picked this up when all the Avensole Winery wines ended up at grocery outlet. Meh label, but that is superfluous since the winery folded. Lovely color. Violets and roses in the glass. Aroma is funky. Hint of matches. Just a slight barnyard in there too. Butterscotch and berries? Is that a thing lol. Flavors are lovely and on point for fine Syrah. Berries, rocks, wild mushrooms, and pork. Tannins are pucker-y and perfect. Hint of smoke and some black olives. Dense and complex. This is excellent Syrah. Hope the new owners can make a similar quality vino. I’ll go by next time I pass by Temecula. — 2 days ago

Been in the fridge a minute this guy. Label is straight forward, but kinda arty. Lovely golden to brassy hue. Aroma of wet limestone and lemon water. Flavors are fresh and interesting. Hint of beeswax, plenty of Meyer lemons and grapefruit peels. Simple finish. Hint of herbs like sage, oregano and marjoram. Almost creamy. This is a nice little screwtop white that’s pretty different than the usual suspects. — 4 days ago

Cheesy label. Dark color. Slight cola stuff on nose and also palate. Has all the trappings of CA AVA Pinot. Fruit and all the types of Coke (diet, cherry, vanilla and regular). It’s alright. Just nothing too interesting. — 12 days ago
