  Popped and poured. A ruby red with a purple tinge to the edge. The nose is, well, cheap, generic, is there a hint of floralness and some vanillary oak? On the palate, quite a bit of acidity, cranberry and other sour red berries. Hmm, trying out some under 10€ wines in Alko to find an easy crowd pleaser for a party. This is not it. It did get a bit better with airtime and food. 50+4+8+13+7=82
