Peter Koff's greatwine2u, $15

Big juicy fruit on the nose with a touch of oaky notes. On the palate, that bright juicy fruit starts off followed by a slight floral bitterness. The oak is very subtle and well integrated, I hardly notice it and I'm pretty sensitive to oak, finishes with a slightly sweet maybe smokey chocolate note. Tannins we're fine and light, good balance of acidity, really smooth in general. Only complaint was the bitter note on the mid finish but overall a really nice wine and amazing for the price!
