January 13, 2024 - Ruby wine with a subdued nose of earth, cherry and some violet. In the mouth, dry, dark cherries, slight leather, with orange rind. Seems very old world Rioja. Smooth all the way through the medium length finish of dark cherry, and earth, and the acidity keeps it lively.

November 16, 2023 - You usually get what you pay for, and this bottle was a prime example of such a $11 wine

October 28, 2023 - Decent mid week drinker for the price. Nose is a bit muted and fruit seems a bit one dimensional and flat at first...but the finish is quite pleasant and continues to build for a long time, with spices and hints of earth.
