coyote1909's Review: A fine darker red, quite dry as you'd expect from a syrah/cab combination. It's been a while since I last had it, but it's got good flavor in spades, with a nice aftertaste to boot. For all you get, I'd call this a real bargain.

coyote1909's Review: It's been a while since I last had it, but this was some good stuff, one of the best Missouri wines I've ever had. I can't give detailed tasting notes, but I can tell you that almost all of the people I let try it thought it was quite good. A fine desert wine.

coyote1909's Review: A great-looking rosé that's surprisingly bland. It does indeed look gorgeous in the glass, but that's about as good as it gets. It's somewhat sweet, but lacking any kind of character. It was like drinking sweet water: kind of bland smelling, kind of bland tasting in the front, kind of bland going down, and with a bland and slightly unpleasant aftertaste to top it all off.

It's never a good sign when you have to struggle to down a bottle - wine's pretty delicious naturally, after all. I wouldn't recommend this. Then again, I prefer dark dry reds, so maybe I was barking up the wrong tree here to begin with.
