For the price -$25 - that wine over delivers. Plum, leather, chocolate notes and great mouth feel.

The right fruit, the right tannic balance - yummy! (New technical term ...)

Fruity, not a lot of tannins. A little thin in its taste, small bouquet.

Blend of Merlot (80%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) and Cabernet Franc (10%). Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of dark cherries and plums with a hint of barnyard funk. More plum on the palate with additional notes of balsamic vinegar and a light touch of vanilla on the long and luxurious finish. Full bodied and quite rich. Velvety texture and tannins. So easy to drink.
