Had this at a tasting. In a word, awful. Heavy spice overpowers the fruit, dusty harsh tannins, unpleasant. Short finish. Pass. Tasting Sample.

Tried the 10 now the 11, not much better, somewhat thin, lacking depth. I have not found a Private label wine I like. Pass on this one.

A nice Pinot. A little spicey. Feels a bit like a light Malbec.

Really enjoying. Light in color but still has depth. Very drinkable.

Tastes of cherry, pomegranate and with spice tones. Enjoyed this with pernil and potatoes, onions and carrots. Very good accompaniment.
