Tasted blind, called Pomerol. Deep red/black berry fruit, a ton of tannin, a dirty shoe thing, great value. Mouthwatering acid, lips felt like there might be a faint amount of RS, <$12 wholesale, great for grilled strip steak, anything with a char.

Soft, black fruit with chocolate at the final. Weighty and peppery. Low acidity medium tannins. Good!

Smooth but it ends very quickly, almost a bit too abruptly past the tongue. Wish it had a slightly longer note.
