Very fruit forward. Luscious. As it breathes it is really opening up.

Feb 20th, 2014Leather and hay on the nose. Light red fruit on the front, but not much is happening there. The party begins at the top of the palate, where are the blackberry and ripe red cherry (as they say on the label) kick in. Light to medium tannic structure, with no offnotes. Soft finish. This is a very very nice table wine— but I can’t give it more than an 8.9, because there are no surprises here.

Dec 2nd, 2019Excellent blend. Opens well. Price under 20$. Definitely worth buying again.
