Trader Joe's has done it again. Dearly Beloved Forever Red is a blend of Syrah, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Sangiovese Carignane and Grenache from Mendocino County in California. Their website indicates that it was aged in a combination of American and French oak for about 18 months. It is a tasty medium-bodied red that will do well with beef or just sipping for enjoyment.
This wine has a nice ruby hue with aromas of dark berries and roasted nuts. Dearly Beloved has subtle hints of oak and a long finish, smooth finish.
The bottle displays silk-screened folk art just in time for Halloween. At $6.99 a bottle in the St. Louis area, it is a bargain.
