It's only wine but I like it
It's only wine but I like it

Big, bold, swarthy with lots of ripeness and warming alcohol. Plenty of tannin and crisp acidity on the finish. Rockin' wine, I really liked this. Discounted to $17, if you can still find it, buy a couple of bottles. I like the exuberance of it now, but would be curious to see how this ages. Tasted May 2023.
