No, I don't think so. I used to have an art teacher who would go to Mexico on vacation every year. Her skin was tough, old and leathery. That's exactly what this wine reminded me of... and I had successfully repressed that memory for decades. I don't think I'll buy this again.

Not too sweet and it doesn’t linger too long on the palate. You can definitely taste the cherry.

Wow nice wine, but value for money. Really velvety, considering I bought for £15. Highly recommend.
