(**) blue perfume with lots of Jammy Merlot extraction on the first sip; cab is soft, not lots of structure, but still round and soft. Hints of plum on the nose, but not on the palate. Delicious, juicy, but lacking complexity.

PnP. Lovely dark red color. Seems somewhat tight on the nose with prunes and bruises red fruit. Watery wine with weak fruit and a touch of cedar. Very little depth and no finish. Read about this in a book and I am disappointed. Glad it was only $20 so fits the price.

Got a little better with time open.

Mellow wine that’s easy drinking. Plums, dark cherries.
