Drier than expected. And a little muted flavors but it is quite delicious.

Solid Portuguese red blend - smooth and steady, nice subtle ripe red fruit body with a sharp crisp finish.

Nice light/medium-bodied, flexible wine that pairs well with food or is an easy drinker by itself. $16 w/o discounts, good to keep a case around for many occasions
