Fresh bag o prunes.
Roasted pit fruit, cigar box, light saline, hints of slate. Great balance of fruit/tannin/acidity.

Great wine for the price. Especially on a “School night”

Medium body, meduim fruit notes. Recommend to pair it with fruits and cheeses, though it says to pair it with heavier dishes. Easy to drink for those looking for a middle range red that may appease those who are not eager for the bold and full bodied wines.
