This is an easy drinking, inexpensive red for a warm afternoon. Enjoy either room temperature or slightly chilled. It is a bit sweet on the palate, but it is also nicely balanced with a dash of acidity. There are little or no tannins to speak of. The quality to price ratio is quite good, so it makes a good crowd pleaser and cellar defender!

I loved it thefirst day - lots of tobacco. My husband liked it better the second when the flavors had mellowed. I see his point...first day was notfor your average wine drinker

kind of a funky wine with sweet fruit notes and a hint of manure on the nose, which I understand is not atypical of the varietal. I suspect some will like that and others will be put off.

Limited complexity. Slightly sweet syrupy cherry body and no real structure.
