    February 22, 2023 - Note: I use the recommended scale, so 85 represents a very good wine.

    Perfectly reasonable for what is is, an unpretentious table wine.
    Noting, this very nice fruit with some acidity to balance.
    Excellent QPR.

    July 21, 2020 - FWS Bordeaux and Southwest tasting 2020; 7/21/2020-7/22/2020: Fun Natty wine,

    Nose did show some of that funk with a hint of VA, but not enough to be an issue for me. Aroma was all over the place. Blackberries, cherries, even apricot and some floral aspects.

    Does show slight VA and Brett. Not enough for me to consider it a fault, but if you detest these flavors avoid. If you, like me, like a little to add depth you will likely enjoy this wine.

    Given the opportunity I would gladly buy this wine again and again...

    February 15, 2020 - Cheap, natty, interesting, and holds up for days. What's not to like?

    Almost drinks like a white, despite the region. Maybe that's what the traditionalists hate about it...
