Listen, this is a cheap ass bottle of wine from Trader Joe's, but it's pretty good and won't give you a killer headache if you decide to drink the whole bottle. I'm just saying...

The color is a see-thru cherry red. The nose is maraschino cherries, a light floral edge, a hit of spice and fresh strawberry. This is a slightly sweet wine, not sugar sweet, but nectar sweet. It starts with ripe black cherry, raspberry, licorice and cranberry. It transitions in the mid palate to a soft splash of pepper, along with blueberry. The tannins are soft and the acidity is light. The finish is fairly full and lengthy.

Bought this at Trader Joes today because it was inexpensive and I'm so glad I did. Its a little sweeter than I usually get but the body is great and the taste is great! Definitely would get this again.

Highly drinkable. And no guilt for the ridiculously low price (Trader Joe's)
