Thought I buy it since it was cheap. Wasn't really expecting much but it turn out to be good

Has a deep ruby color when poured. Not much on the nose but medium bodied on the palette. Spicy on the palette with a lingering finish. Great value for the price. Would recommend.

Deep and dark with heavy tannins. Always a nice choice.

Really nice aroma. Lush fruit flavor, a short oaky aftertaste.
