With Sirloin, roast potatoes, last asperagus of the season, on the deck on a nice evening. Nice light red, just a touch of brick on the rim. Floral nose, becoming but light. A light wine, nice mix of fruit, but not a lot of depth.
I don't think this wine aged too rapidly, just never had the quality of fruit to balance out everything.

Rustic with no fruit flavors. Leather, tobacco. Lots of acid. Did not impress me at all.
