Ripe red fruit on the nose with spicy pepper heat. Warm bolder body to match the nose. Supple berries, cherries and ripe strawberries. Tart long finish with peppery notes.

Mar 7th, 2018Inexpensive Red blend. Nice with heavy d’œuvres and red meat or Italian dishes. The blend is reminiscent of a chianti though this is a French vintage. Black and spicy fruits with some herbs. Dark, rich color. - TJ NOLA

Nov 19th, 2018I think this may be my favorite Trader Joe’s wine. 😱 Great tannins, dry, light oakyness that blends together well. Opened this bottle a few days ago and it has kept quite well. 😋

Oct 13th, 2018Unremarkable. Unremarkably smooth. Unremarkably dry enough. Unremarkably easy to drink. Unremarkably fruity. It's not bad tasting, it tastes ok, it's just "meh".

Oct 8th, 2018This wine’s bouquet brings to the fore memories of the sea. Once I take a sip, I picture a tapas restaurant with mahogany paneling, ambience lighting, and linen tablecloths.
At first taste, well-balanced. Perfect rich and tart berry flavors with a hint of natural vanilla and oak. Not too tannic and light & bouncy on the tongue. For me, I would love this with whitefish ceviche, tacos, and/or pasta.
Versatile and affordable.
Reminds me of a platitude I live by in terms of wine (and life), “If it tastes good, drink it.” I can still hear Larry, the spectacled, fourth generational New Yorker yell from behind the counter, bottles stacked on cardboard boxes, of his boutique downtown wine shop on Maiden Lane.
$6.99 — Trader Joe’s

Just ok, nice fruit and spice but seems to lack the structure to back it up
