A very straightforward wine. Not overripe or extracted in any way, some slightly harsh tannins that blow off after about an hour and leave a very pleasant and quite balanced daily drinker. Nice freshness. Found locally at around $10 which I consider an absolute steal.

The word "reserve" is misleading compared to what Im used to a Napa reserve. Its quite lightbodied and it is quite simple. I was surprised that it had more cherry notes then black fruits in the beginning, but opens up after an hour and has some depth. Its pretty cheap and its nice for a random dinner.
