Nice old world flavors here at a bargain price, graphite, earthy, minerals, underneath all the terroir are hints of plums currants and spice. Smooth and ready to drink!

Tasted blind. The wine is a dark purple color in the glass and is still youthful. The bouquet shows blackberry, plush red cherry, mushroom and some brett. The palate adds cranberry and an earthy character reminiscent of beach sand. There is some new oak in the wine. Acidity is medium and tannins are slightly elevated. The finish is short and the wine lacks complexity. Fine as a simple food wine, but not very complex.

Pretty drab and uneventful but useful for the price.

It was OK for the price, but there wasn't anything outstanding about it.
