It’s so nice when an entry level wine does you the favor of punching above its weight. Medium ruby color with thin edges and lilac undertones. The nose is a little muted but it’s so clean and floral. Fresh cherry pie, violets, milk chocolate, and anise on the bouquet. All smooth goodness from start to finish. Easygoing in the mouth, there is a bit of complexity but this wine is mainly here for the party. A kitchen sink blend that’s mostly Merlot, this has a lot of disparate elements that come together very well. Plenty of mint chocolate, wild berries, and cinnamon, with oak saying hello throughout. A clean, focused, and unfussy pour. Nice stuff.

Smooth medium bodied, distinct fruit aromas, medium legs a great value for the money ~$22.00 USD. Punches well over its price point. Great sipper
