Light crimson in color, this wine showed muted black fruits of cherry, currant and blackberry along with tobacco on the nose. The mouth feel was unpleasant with overbearing acidity along with fading fruit. The finish was uneven and the out of balance acidity overwhelmed the subtle fruit.
Even at only $9US, this is not a wine I'd try again. It's only a bargain if you like it.

Got this as a gift, admittedly I would have never buy this. After tasting it and seeing the scores, I am concerned, as this is getting the same score as a Pinot from Oregon 2008 that I have 3 bottles. I am referring to the Coelho sold as a Garagiste mystery wine, if this is any resemblance of what to expect, oh boy, I better start working on my refund request.

- Purple color with medium forming legs and aromas of vanilla and has flavours of vanilla, honey and black currant.
