I usually have to force myself to drink regular reds simply because they are normally heavier than white and I like something that I can have a glass or two of and still be able to work coherently.

This wine has very low tannins and is complemented by a nice shot of dark fruit/berries with a quick drop-off, but a nice smooth finish. The color is a nice dark and inky purple that you would think of in regards to regal robes.

I give this a 9 and highly recommend it to everyone. Now, I am on an inquisitive quest to see what else this company has released.

P.S. This is also great for the ladies.
