This is a blend of mostly Merlot, a good chunk of Cab Sauv, and just a splash of Cab Franc.
A bit of heat on the nose, black fruit - cassis and plum mostly, though - and this may sound strange -a raw chicken sorta thing.
Smooth and balanced, though not exactly complex - plum, blueberry, black cherry, vanilla. This is a solid middle of the road red, the kind of wine you can pop open and eat with anything from pizza to a steak and be set.
Blueberry lingers and way way on the back end some cherry.
Eleven bucks? Beyond sold - snag it.
Score: 87
