Mad flavor for a $10 house wine. I'd definitely buy it again. Has the indicative earthiness of a Spanish wine, minerals, raspberry and rose petals.

Soooooooo warm and delicious from the very first sip. Like super smooth velvet.

Fruit forward with a nice display of tannins on the backend, and I usually don't like a lot of tannins, but this is a lovely full-bodied wine, especially for the price!
