Light on its feet, but full flavored. Red fruited, lots of pepper and spices, fully integrated tannins, and a medium to long finish. Gets better every day its open.

This wine is in a really nice place right now. Raspberry, cherry and plum initially, after 45-60min a spiced plum, a slight dried florals, faint toasty vanilla, and some herbs and licorice. Tertiary is starting to show, and the acid has calmed down. Subtle tannins. This seemed like an 87-89 pt wine before, but with a little age, it is sitting at 90 now.
This is a screaming good value for $15 if you can find it.

Translucent ruddy red. Cinnamon, raspberry, and cola nose. Light to medium bodied, cranberries, bright cherries, white pepper, well integrated tannins, good acid, and a red-fruited, almost sweet, medium length finish. Simple but tasty, and a great value.

A bit less fruit, a bit more texture and spices, still light bodied with a medium to long finish. Aging, but still in its window.
