Red wine color. Smells like fruity fruits. Red ones. Flavor is ripe, juicy and sorta sour cherry. Has a bit of tannin on the finish. Earthy. It’s a nicely priced, sunny red from the ‘Terre Siciliané’,

Purchased at the Grocery Outlet for $5.99.

That said, when we opened it yesterday it was totally not-descript. I wasn't even going to post it. Now, I am flabbergasted. We wasted it!
👃 lots of plummy raisins and caramel. So much fruit, it reminded me of a fruit compote.
👅 Pleasant leathery tannins, dry, subtly astringent. I never thought I'd b say "pleasant" and "leathery" in the same sentence.

Let this air out at least 24 hours!
