2016 opened Nov 2018. Lots of red fruit on the nose. Ripe cherries on the front, but with a pronounced mineral tannic structure the rest of the way down — which balances the initial fruitiness. Good for a rainy Sunday afternoon.

Portugal Trip with Indian food in Lisbon. Sweet blend. Borderline unbalanced, but not undrinkable for the under $15/20 price point.

Pretty awful, no concentration and no structure. A commercial, industrial wine.
