A ripe, flavorful, soft, food-friendly bargain for drinking over the next year.
Dark ruby with magenta highlights. After airing, a vividly ripe nose featuring ripe raspberries, tomatoes, and wet stones. Mouthfilling, ripe, direct fruit coats the mouth, with some briary earthiness in the back half of the palate. Not a complex wine, but soft and flavorful. Medium length, clean finish. A very good value and would work with lots of foods (pastas with red sauces, pizza, grilled burgers, fajitas, etc.) Nice weekday wine. 87. Was about $10 at Spec's. Imported by Eric Solomon.

We've just finished the last of our 2006 and are well into the 2007 - both are wonderful! Glad to read your review, I'll pick up a case. In Canada it is available for about $17 depending upon which province you are in. Nice review!
