This wine gets better with each vintage. The 2011 is once again great value for a balanced red. Expect fruity aromas...

Can't remember it, but it has a thumbs up picture on my phone, so on the fav list for now.

This vibrant ruby red wine, has aromas of sweet cherry and raspberry. On the palate it is dry with a medium body. Mostly red fruits with some earthiness. Medium tannins and a good finish. A basic red, but can't complain for the price.
Tasted April 2012.
