Top Notes For
Red table wine. Tannins are pretty mellow. Medium oak. Medium body. Dark ruby. Smoother than expected for sub $15. Hints of tobacco, chocolate, raspberry, a touch of dirt and maybe wet stone. Not slate; possible pa blue stone. Not bad. Prob good with pasta or a cheesesteak. Be sure to let it breathe for a few hours as that seemed to let the fruit come out.
