I had half a dozen of these. There's promise in the fruit, a hint of complexity that falls away and is replaced by a tannic finish. This last one was least enjoyable; not a wine to cellar. Drink up.

Color: nice deep red Nose: black cassis, black pepper, tobacco, anise Palate: tart black fruits, muted, dulled flavors, nothing bursting out Mouthfeel: short and mildly tannic Decent bottle for 11 bucks

Really a disappointment overall. Drinkable but not terribly enjoyable, especially considering the grapes blended for this wine. Entry was sour but smoothed out mid palate. Hints of black olive. Spicy, short finish.

Very fruity, light tannin, a little better with cheese.
