A rustic nose of dark fruit and some spice, dark purple in color. A medium to full bodied kitchen sink blend, with blackberry, black cherry, licorice and spice, a good value. www.winelx.com

On the nose it had plumb, fig, dried raisins, little bit of oak. As it opens you get the tart cranberry, on the palate is so much the same. It does have a velvety, fruity finish that’s so pleasing. It gets softer and fruiter the more it opens. Some tart on the finish too. It reminds me of a fruit roll up and makes the sides of your jaw pucker a bit with some mediums to high acid. I was told to try this as a better alternative to prisoner. That was spot on. This drinks so much more smooth with nice fruit. Much more pleasing then prisoner. The price is a complete understatement for the quality you’re getting. This wine blew me away for less than $20. I would buy this all day long.

D1 - Has big cherry with tobacco finish. Agree with others on rough finish. Falls away completely D2, down to tainnings and alcohol with no fruits
