Rusty red. Strawberry, earth, watermelon, and spice nose. Light to medium bodied, tangy cranberries, bright cherries, dusty tannins, a bit of heat, good acid, and a dry medium finish. Simple, but fun, and a good value.

The bottle I dranks two days ago was better than indicated in the other comments. Loads of fruit...had a deep black cherry flavor...suggesting it is just shy of being sweet. Somewhat unidimensional though...as in, not complex, not having those layers of different flavors most of us enjoy in a more 'high end' wine. But this wine is excellent QPR. It's longer on the finish than I expected (compared to earlier comments). It has a few more good years in it, but I wouldn't let it sleep in the cellar too long.

Better now. Nice acidity, tannins are integrated, still some red and black fruit. A good weeknight wine.

Worked well with sausage lasagne. Good acidity, light body, well balanced.
