Reviews and Ratings

Darlene Myers - CAPS Student rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

This wine reminded me of Apothic Red at a fraction of the price. Juicy and jammy with some sweetness. It wasn't as sweet as some I have tried lately. It's easy to drink, many of your friends are going to like it, and a great summer wine for the patio party or the BBQ.
Paula Bernardino rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

I tried this red wine from California at Vargas Steakhouse in Montreal. I loved the modern-looking label and its description of "Big Bold Red". This is a full-bodied wine with tastes of berries with some spice. It went lovely with the filet mignon I ordered.
Melanie Aubert rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

This deep purply red wine smells of berry jam, vanilla and spice. This lip-smacking Californian blend is super juicy and reminiscent of a zinfandel. Very low tannins and flavours of plum, ripe cherry, raspberry, blackberry, vanilla and sweet spice, with a medium-long finish. Nothing overly complex here, just easy drinking.
Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 82/100 with the following review:

Not much to this wine except for berry, berry, and more berry. An easy quaff that is well made. 82 Points. (ottawawinejournal.com)
