Competent without being exceptional, this wine is drinkable and inoffensive.

Corporate party wine. Let's just say, the high end beer was Budweiser.

Grape juice on the nose with roses, blackberries, black pepper and spices.
Ruby in color and light bodied. Dry on the attack with soft blackberries on the mid palate, and lots of black pepper.
Dry finish with green tannins and tart cherries. Thin legs and 13.5% alcohol.
Young, Dry table wine, that needs food to accompany it. Decanting it took it to a better place, but not more than average. I Paired it with fried chicken livers.
