Decadent and full-bodied red wine with a deep, mellow body and a smooth, rounded finish. The notes are well-balanced, with whispers of vanilla, cherry, and blackberry, and a dash of tanginess that adds richness and complexity. The tannins are medium in strength, providing a refined and enjoyable consuming experience. Overall, a great bargain for the price, with a long finish and a drinkable quality that makes it a great choice for everyday consumption.

Promising concept, but execution fell short. The nose was a jarring reminder of cough syrup, a stark contrast to the potential of a decadent Cabernet Sauvignon. A disappointing experience, with the nose being the most notable misstep.
