Color: Garnet Red with brown edges.
Nose/Smell: Chalk and light dirt. Dark fruits and plums.
Palate/Taste: Definitely has sweeter dark fruits. Low tannins (4.5/10) and thinner body. Very easy drinker.
Opinion: Drink by the end of 2016 before it gets too thin. Solid easy drinker. Very quaffable.

Doesn't taste much different than Menagé Trois Red; not disgusting, but not on my in-stock list.
