Ruby red color with flavors of licorice and dark cherry. The body is heavy, the acidity is good. It has a rustic finish and is not multi-layered, but with good flavor and balance.

Served this over the holidays to a large group, who seemed a bit put off by the barnyard scent that was present immediately upon opning. Seemed to subside with air, but the nose didn't seem to stop them from drinking it. Perhaps a little young to drink now and requring patience upon opening

Quite a remarkable wine at this low price point. Cherry color and scent, mild barnyard scent and slightly tannic on opening but scent disappears and balance appears with an hour of air.

Good QPR for a bottle under $10.
