Rich red fruit flavor with smooth, but tart finish.

Very inexpensive, but not worth even the low price. Nothing going on, a little bitter.

Good value @ $9. Dusty road, tobacco, tart acidic fruit. Good light inexpensive Chianti.

Maybe a little past it's prime? Nothing exciting, lots of ripe fruit, color tending toward brownish.

Good TJ’s Classico offering. Liked my last bottle alot more but I’m pretty sure it was later into the night. Either way solid TJ’s go to.

Solid bang for the buck wine. Sweet art on the label as an added bonus. Rated!

Definitely could use some time but it's very smooth for now, nice acidity and black currants.
