Well I didn’t pair my wine and food very well tonight. I have an Italian wine with Mexican fajitas! Oh well they both still taste good together. 🍷🌮 c’est La Vie! 😉

Great notes but something dark and funky about it. Not funky like a toe fungus more like James Brown funky. Crazy and out of control.

Pretty aromatic, cherry and red fruits, with done vanilla and herbal notes. Nice level of tannins, really well balanced.

Fruity almost jammy notes but without the black pepper one would expect from this varietal. Overall a good value.

For a price it's still ok but way to dry in a bad way.

A bit too dry for me. Not bad, but not overly appealing.

Nice value wine. Deep red with blue. Smells carbonic, plum, blueberry, marker, wet stone. Moderate tannin, some acidity,low bitterness. No spice. Simple but clean.
