This affordable red blend from popular Mark Ryan Winery uses fruit from some great Washington sites to produce this everyday drinker. The nose starts with an octane kick but quickly opens up to fruit filled aromas of black cherry, blueberry and other red berries, along with spicy pepper and licorice. In the mouth the flavors are surprisingly smooth with additional blueberry, black cherry and plum. Don’t relax too much however, and let your guard down, because the deceivingly silky finish can also include a slight tannin sucker punch, but nothing that’s going to knock you off your feat.

What's all the CHATr about?

How do the Wine Scores equate to each other?

Different people like to rate wines in different ways, and we aim to please. So we give you 2 options.

You can rate wine on a scale of 0-5 Glasses, or for finer detail, you can rate wine on a 100 point scale.

We do the conversion for you so all Wine Ratings display both values. The table below shows you the conversion:

= 50 points or less.
= 51 - 57 points.
= 58 - 62 points.
= 63 - 67 points.
= 68 - 72 points.
= 73 - 77 points.
= 78 - 82 points.
= 83 - 87 points.
= 88 - 92 points.
= 93 - 96 points.
= 97 - 100 points
