  December 18, 2023 - Bought on recommendation of a Bordeaux loving friend, PnP in Zalto Bdx stems. Medium bodied, good clarity, some spicy notes. Some green elements along with sweetish red fruit. A little lacking in acid, and with a surprising citrus element. This came across as simplistic, though enjoyable, and reminded me of grocery store wines I'd buy when in France years ago - perfectly fine for a few EUR. I guess this is the current equivalent. We did end up liking it, and it was an amazing match with one of our favorite guilty treats of pretzels and port wine cheese. The lack of acidity is a challenge for those who drink a lot of champagne, Riesling, and Burgundy. That said, it's a good tool to have in the cellar and for the price is obviously a good value. I doubt this will benefit from more cellar time as there is really no grip or evident tannic structure. A nice, soft, inexpensive red wine for when you don't want something more acidic.
