Nice richness, good body and fruit forward, stays together, lighter color, good sourness, slight tannin, most points for balance and depth in body, refreshing

I can recognize that this is good quality, but not really my favorite style of wine. I can see how this could be a crowd pleaser though. Some bottle age might have really benefited this.
