The wine was a pretty dark red plum in the glass. The nose pleasant with a hint of oak. The taste on the palate was quite smooth and balanced. The wine has a full finish with good oak. It did not have heavy pepper of Shiraz/Syrah. We agree with the label that the wine has floral notes, but we would identify it as raspberry (which also have a wonderful floral taste.) At $5.99, we rate this as a good value. We had a 06 of the same wine (it has a redesigned label) that we did not enjoy nearly as much. If you are buying this wine, look for the "old fashioned" green label.
