Very earthy with a hint of cigar on the nose. Light body, smooth tannins with some red fruit on the palate.

2015. Nice dinner wine. Lighter. Red fruit. Mild earthy taste. Later finishing flavors of vanilla.

Needs to breathe-nice blend-good with pasta or pizza. God price point-I would label it a good table wine.

Score based on value. Light, but floral nose and nice finish. Pairs well with a variety of dishes.

Not bad. Too light. If I blindfolded you, you couldn't guess this was red. Pairs well with Gruyere. Nothing really remarkable.
