Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, January 16, 2019 - Very light, as has been said. Pleasant, faintly enjoyable, but weak flavor, watery, no depth, length or complexity. At dinner with friends it was generally enjoyed, especially in comparison to the grocery store wine on hand. So if it is free, it can be enjoyed, but at the $40 price I paid, I will not buy it again, unless there is a 2 for 1 sale.
From reading reviews here, I had intended to buy the 2015, but at the store I learned that one has higher alcohol ( 2014: 13.5%, 2015: 14%), which is presumably responsible for the higher rating, but not a good reason for it in my opinion. Maybe I was wrong to go with the 2014, but I am reluctant to pay even more for the 2015 when this one was so disappointing and already overpriced.
