My Review: This wine was not overly memorable but it was not bad either.  It kind of tasted like a red wine which can be appealing at times.  This wine was not complex and did not have a large amount of flavor but to just sit down and have with a meal this wine could be good.  My only worry is that I will forget about this wine and not buy it in the future.
