As my friend Todd with the large head would say, "More sweet than bitter, bitter than sweet." This is an even-keel wine to please the masses. At $10, it's great for a casual Memorial Day BBQ and would pair well with burgers or steaks. It has some dryness, but not too much to the point where it's not enjoyable as a sippin' wine.
The Aramis hails from Aydie in South West France. It's made from three grapes: 20% Tannat, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 40% Cabernet Franc. I can only assume the namesake of this wine is Aramis, one of the Three Musketeers (it's a good marketing story, why wouldn't the bottle mention it?). Overall a good combo for the $10 price tag @ Sam's. 5.5/10 rating. Nothing amazing, but a good, enjoyable standby.
