Least favorite wine we've had in a while--way too sweet and syrupy for our tastes. Could see it working well for some desserts, but just wasn't great for dinner. — a year ago

Way fruity but not too sweet--not sure what it'd pair best with because of how strong and acidic it was. Still, nice and dry and not quite overwhelming, so it was nice overall. — a year ago

8.3

Not bad at all--a red that's heavier on the smooth side, decently chocolatey, and exceedingly rubbery with low tannin, very sleek and palatteable. Would enjoy with just about any protein, and great with any entry from the Somm documentary series. — 2 years ago
