This is not a 95 wine. It’s an 88-89 (higher if you factor in QPR) but I’m balancing out the harsh graders. I’ve never seen so many low to meh ratings with positive notes for a wine as cheap as this. Might be the best $15 bottle of wine I’ve had in 20 years, excluding the freebies.

Garnet; warm leather, bricks, squashed summer red fruits; accessible, easy going ripe fruit, soft; fading on the finish. Drink up.
Overnight this deepened & shaped up neatly.

Well coloured; mellow, sophisticated, confident; supple, refreshing, good weight, complete. Approaching or at peak.

Agree with Ewindels note but wow I guess I’m an easy grader....versatile weeknight dinner wine and excellent value.

Good, supple, easy drinking wine with a barnyard twist. First experience with this appellation.
