Herbal and a bit sharp on the nose. Sour red fruit, some bramble, and oaky dill on the palate. Medium-plus bodied; fine but not very elegant tannin; medium acid. Finish of sour brblu fruit and drying tannin. Not great, but quite drinkable.

Clear and dark ruby in appearance. Aromas of cola, black cherry and vanilla. On the palate - medium acidity with a watery, light bodied mouth-feel. Flavors of white pepper, red plum and raspberry. Short finish with a somewhat metallic edge. This is a very simple wine. 3 or 4 bucks from Trader Joes. For the money, it's a wine you bring to a picnic or some sort of pot luck where people just don't care about the wine. It's not bad or flawed, it's just cheap and mass produced. Ho hum.

Generic red wine. Tastes fine, but certainly not like a Primitivo.

I mean, its $5 from Trader Joes.
When I first opened it almost smelled like a locker room. Kind of damp and musty.
I'm embarrassed to say I decanted it but wanted to open it up if possible.
Just a thin wine with some fruit and spice if you aerate it in your mouth. Not horrible but will never get again
