Black fruit and firm tannins - might be better in a year or three. Not bad in a pinch.

60% Merlot & 40% Cab Sauvignon. Medium-body. Medium tannins. Good structure & balance. A nice, fruity smooth taste with an elegant long finish.

Caustic. Poor. Tastes like the cheapest wine in a Wall Street journal win subscription box. O wait....

Spicy aroma with hints of fruit. Chocolate flavors initially followed by earthy and oak balanced with fruit.

Classic bordeaux leather & spice on the nose, fruit forward, finishes dry. Not complex, but very quaffable.
