Stewed strawberry and leather on the nose.
Light tannins. Sweet at first with a bit of a drier finish allowing the bit of tannins to grab on. Cherries, a bit of acidity from some blackberry notes with a bit of white peppery flavour. Goes well with my chicken and pasta, definitely an affordable Netflix wine. — 8 years ago

For a cheapie bottle it's pretty tasty. Goes well with procrastinating and the stress associated with exams. Also my tomato pasta with beef.
Got this as part of a twelve pack for about $5/bottle from Angel Wines.
Oak, dark cherry, cinnamon pepper and similar spices on the nose.
Low moderate tannins, a bit oaky, mostly dark red fruits with a bit of sweetness. Palate stays sweet with a bit of the spices left in your nose.
For $15 it's great, for $25 it's okay at best. For $5 I'm pleased. — 7 years ago
