Respectable inexpensive wine. Drink it soon. Degrades within a day of opening.

Maybe a little young to drink right now but still delish (@Meeter B). A great blend of spicy, oh so nice. Unsweetened grape bubble gum at first then matures with tobacco, cloves, white pepper and just over the moon delish-ness (@Meeter B)

Dark Ruby in color with a purplish rim.
Earthy nose with green peppers, oak, leather, forest floor, dirt, pencil lead and black pepper.
Medium to full-bodied with medium acidity and Long Legs.
Dry and savory on the palate with blueberries, plums, cherries, strawberries, green peppers, leather, dirt, tobacco, licorice, wood, light vanilla, dill and peppercorn.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins, spices and bitter almonds.
A very savory Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Balanced and drinkable, better with food, though.
I Paired it with hard cheeses, crackers and dry fruits.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

Delicious and smooth at room temperature. Dark berry flavor is dominant, with such an easy finish. As a fan of cab sauvs, I like this one
