If you accidentally toasted a blackberry this would be the taste... maybe a little bitter... nice finish. went well with dark chocolate. overall, average-good, if you can find it for $4 like we did, worth picking one up, just because it's a damn sight better than most alternatives < $5. it was borderline between average and good, hence the 80.

Darker read , Burgundy color Aroma somewhat harsh - as label suggests some cherry/berry flavor Flavor - Picked up tannin - tart & a little bitter Medium body with smooth mouth-feel Strong Finish Will try cellaring a couple of bottles for a taste at at age 5 & 7 years (08 & 2010)
