Deep purple colored, with a watery sheen (8% ABV).  The nose has medium intensity aromas of candied red cherry, ripe black raspberry, red plum, violets, acai berry, and petrichor.  The palate is semi-sweet, with medium (-) acidity, medium (+) body, and low tannins.  Medium (-) intensity flavors of a red fruit cocktail with some herbal notes.  The weight comes from the residual sugar, whilst the low tannins make it a relatively easy drinking sweetie.  The lowish acidity adds to the weight, making it a bit cloying.  The finish is medium (-) in length.  It’s not my style, nor did I mean to buy a semi-sweet red wine.  I have had others, which balance the sweetness with some acidity, making the mouthfeel less heavy.  It’s not a refreshing wine, nor is it sweet enough to be a stickie, it’s probably a decent aperitif for some.  84 points from me for this $14 effort makes it a 2 star wine in my books.  Drink now.  Salut….
