  As the previous commentator said, this is a wine that's made to please a wide range of international tastes. At the start, this wine is pleasantly fruity but slightly too sweet, at least for my tastes. The sweetness does dissipate after 20-30 minutes, giving way to quite a velvety soft, rounded wine of medium-to-full body. There's a reasonable middle and finish to the wine, but it doesn't do quite enough in any department for me. However, considering the price that I paid in a supermarket in Guizhou, China, I can't grumble at the QPR. Also, my fellow diners appeared to enjoy it. In summary: a good wine but not one for me.

  Kind of an International style of Tempranillo to please almost every palate. To be honest, it does. It only costs $5. Not sure I can pinpoint the typicity of the Tempranillo flavors, but just saying, as a red wine beverage it doesn't suck. Deep red color. Roses, strawberry and alcohol on the nose. Raspberry and cherry fruit. Only modest tannins and acid, but we can live with a wine that is mostly fruit. Probably a tad of RS, but it works.
