Pretty good Tempranillo, especially for the price. This mellowed out after a few days; I think it's much better after oxygenating a bit!

Update: ended up making this one into a sangria. Perfect with some apples and cinnamon 👌

Great "comfortable" wine. It doesn't try too hard - just delivers a fruit forward easy drinker with an relaxed finish that is organic, sustainable and affordable. What's not to love.

Smooth, versatile medium red that’s sort of getting me through this quarantine right now. You really can’t beat the value of the 1L.

Just great. A wine I could ostensibly drink daily.

Tried this at Crafty Cow in Bay View and really liked it. It was a nice surprise for such an inexpensive glass of wine.
