  Soft and supple red fruit, low tannin, low acid. Very friendly and pleasing. Easy to drink and pair with food.
  
  I caught this one leaking, so out it came for immediate consumption. I was prepared for a disappointment, but didn't find one. The cork was completely stained, but the wine was in great shape.
  
  This bottling has high fruitiness, almost seems like a touch of residual sugar, but I don't think so. My wife usually points out the wines she thinks are sweet, and she didn't put that accusation on this one.
