Soft and fruity with balanced tannins. Maybe softer than preferred to pair with pizza, but quite good anyway on its own

Tried this in class, and I view it was a cheap option when you need a wine that really can’t go wrong. Definitely higher quality than I expected for the price point. It was pretty mild with some bitterness, but finished smooth. Once again, great option if I was in a pinch and needed something I knew could please most drinkers

Mild. Soft. Opened up at the end of the meal. Easy to drink but thin and lacks flavor. 9.99 at LFW. Would not get again.

This one surprised me. Good right out of the bottle. Delicate fruit notes and an excellent balance of tanins and sweetness. Low acidity and very easy drinking but did not get boring. Very good wine.

i liked one of the campo viejo's but it wasn't this one ... not sure which one i had before. to me, it's bitter but has a nice finish. very sharp tasting. husband said "very muted dark red fruit, oak taste, barrel influence, some spice, and a black cherry - plum (very light)". i can't get any notes i'm stuck on the bitter taste it punches me with. okay and also the second glass tastes better not sure what to think...
