Faint strawberry nose, medium body, plenty of acidity but not too much, good tannins. Very simple, decent red table wine but other GSM's out there at this price point that are better.

This wine makes me very happy every time I have it. It is amazing for the moderate price. Graceful and generous in its long, multi-layered palate -- deep, rich berries, a touch of spice and wood, licorice. Sexy, balanced tannins. Persistant finish. Should cellar well for several years. Wonderful with food from creamy cheeses, dense fish, chicken, pork, beef. A beauty. 13.5% alco (D7, F 6, Ideal Wine & Spirits/East)
