  My experience and opinion of this wine tonight is one of being non-plussed and underwhelmed. I found it to be a mid-market, mid-weight product, medium to nondescript in every trait from nose to palate to finish. What fruit there is here is tired and any sense of tannins or acidity have retreated and a4e hiding. In a word, blah.

  Appearance: Clear, medium ruby.
  Nose: Clean, medium intensity aromas of black cherry, blackberry, raspberry, and hints of garrigue, black pepper, and cedar.
  Palate: Dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins, and medium+ body. The flavors on the palate reflect the aromas on the nose, with additional notes of plum, leather, and spice. The wine has a long finish.
  Quality: This is a very good wine with balanced acidity, tannins, and alcohol. The aromas and flavors are complex and well-integrated.
