Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Shawn rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Cherry and raspberry on the nose and taste. I paid $11.99 and is a giant value. This would be a great party wine that would pair easily with many different options. Easy drinking on its own. Drink while your making dinner or eating it. Nice BBQ wine.
Travis Oke rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

This is a good example of Garnacha - fruity with some tannins and good for a BBQ. I found it a little one dimensional and maybe that's why Grenache/Garnacha is usually blended with something else.
