Syrah-2013: Robust, dark wine with an earthy, spicy kick. Hints of currents and almonds. Strong tannin that encompasses the entire palate and shakes the teethe. Well worth the minimal price. My only critique is the label's silly narrative. It continues on the cork and I find it to be a sophomoric attempt to be clever and gain attention. It is an unnecessary gimmick not required of this wine and is simply beneath it. ALC. by volume: 13.5% • 750 ML

Light, easy to drink with a touch of sweetness at the end. Jenny would probably love.

Great for a cheap bottle! Medium-full bodied bit of plum and pepper.

Good tasting wine for the price. Wanted a peppery wine to balance out a pork dinner. My instincts were right...this time.

Solid red table wine. Nothing special about it.
