I thought this was a good $11 wine. Fruity, raspberries and blackberries. Very bright. Easily drinkable. Nothing highly memorable about it, but a bottle I would buy again. Would be good with some barbecue - could use a little smoker meat to go with it. I see a lot of peppery comments and I get that.

Decent budget wine. A bit too much Dr. Pepper for me, but that is what the masses like. Would be great with BBQ.
