  October 10, 2010 - nose: nothing much: taste: cassis, enjoyable short-duration finish with a little anise; overall: tasty everyday drink-now wine, which paired well w/grilled scallops wrapped in prosciutto and basil, decent QPR ($10) and worth buying for when you're after a lighter but enjoyable wine
