Not sure what the BevMo guy thought in pairing this with gluten free fried chicken. Didn’t do either justice.

Loads of dark fruits. Would pair nicely with a rich pasta sauce or meat. Quite light body.

2013. Clean, simple, harmless. Really an ok red wine but lacks depth and personality. Nothing horrible but fails to capture the imagination. So a bit blah but there are far worse wines out there so for a midweek with whatever food there is it's ok. Plus is only ten bucks.

Zuriah’s pick of light red. But she says it’s darker than most.
Pretty strongly tart but not very bitter for a red wine. Very drying for how not bitter it is. Tiny bit of an almost floral taste
