A clear, bright medium-deep depth ruby-violet colored wine with very little structure to it. As with the Merlot there are light/faint berry notes for your nose and about the same for your taste buds. It's a little more astringent than their Merlot but still pretty fain with very muted tannins, so-so balence and short finish. In a word: Blah! Better for sipping (if you must) than dinner but again just barely. Check out some of the other choices instead of this one.
