A bottle of this wine got 'lost' in my Cellar and I opened it tonight. All of those flaws that so many complained of a few years ago seem to have resolved. The color is still a nice ruby. Nice round flavor. Not too complex but a great sipper. I wish I had more to open for any social gathering where friends will pop open a few bottles to watch a movie, political debate, or play charades; whatever. I am re-watching the pilot for the West Wing and enjoying this unpretentious, easy drinking garnacha, which is really what I think this wine was envisioned to be.

I bought a case of this from WL. I have drank 4 bottles and none have been that good (84 pts Max). However two have been slightly fizzy and astringent. Not holding out much hope for this one, a GarryVee letdown.

Almost a slight carbonated taste in POP. Two days after vacu vin and that went away but still just blah. But that carbonated feel was really bad.

My second bottle to have some unexpected fizz. Shook it out but this wine is still a bit of a dud. Would not use for anything except sangria.
