This tasted like a cheap RdM -- which is what I expected. It was not the best date to the prom, but she knew most of the dance moves, wore a little too much make-up and was more cute that beautiful. All to say, the cherry was a bit candied, the tannins were subdued and there was not a lot of depth or complexity. Still, sitting on the porch on a warm summer night with my wife—who is beautiful, and has depth and complexity—this wine was nice company for the price and did not compete for attention.

Had previously and enjoyed much more -- bottle just didin't seem up to snuff. That said, terrific food wine.

We loved this wine with pasta and a red sauce with sausage.
