Nate's Comments: 

First thing you notice is wow, its very very berry tasting. I saw someone mention bubble gum, and while thats a bit extreme, it's not far from that. There are some tannins noticeable after the swallow. To me, they were more from the tongue and nearly no throat burning. The aftertaste is the problem. There's just not much to it other than this tinny/slight tanniny taste. 1 minute after I swallowed the wine, I would have never known I drank any wine. I think maybe its just the young age. It's ok, but for the same price, I've tasted better.

Pairing: Bottle says favorite salad, pasta or grilled meat.
