| Personal Notes |
Big and bold. It has strong anise, raisin and cigar flavors. Not a bit of fruit. A pleasant surprise for the price... |

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
Strawberry dominates the aroma. It is not a meaty red but it has good body. It finishes with a pleasant wood/mineral taste. I really like it for its price. - 02/01/2008

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
I get the pepper, smoke and oak. It is kind of thin and it doesn't hold up to food very well. The flavor is okay, especially for the price, classic merlot styling. - 01/11/2008

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
A sweet/fruity aroma. I read that it had blueberry overtones, I agree, but without the help I would have called it cherry or simply fruity. For a cheaper syrah, I would actually call it complex. A pretty good value for a syrah. - 01/25/2008

| Personal Notes |
At cooler temps this is a very light wine with simple berry notes. It is not complex. As it warms, a little anise and vanilla tones slide in. At 10 dollars it makes a 12 dollar merlot. |

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
Not complex at all, more merlot than cab. I struggled to get the anise and vanilla flavors listed on Hogue Cellars tasting notes. For the price, very drinkable. - 12/25/2007
