There is a good amount of oak on it and if I didn't know it was 13.2% alcohol, I would have guessed it to be much lighter because it is crisp and refreshing, like a Sauvignon Blanc.
From Trader Joe's, this was in their red blends section for about $6.
I'm satisfied. 34% Syrah, but whats the rest? Bordeaux varietals? Zin?
Gamay? Concord?
Who knows? Who cares?
For $6, this could be my house red if it plays it's cards right. It is
light and fun and has a good balance of fruit and spice.
Throw your expectations in the gutter and be pleasantly surprised.
