About the Wine: This is a Spanish red blend of some form. The back label helpfully informs us that it is "Red Wine" using red lettering to do so, just to eliminate any doubt.
About THIS Wine: It is crimson red in the glass with a pink rim. The nose reveals the wine's high alcohol content but notes of cedar and red fruit still come through. The palate is very saucy with fairly round tannins and a lot of spice along with red and dark fruit that lingers in a short, plum finish.
Drinking This Wine: This one could definitely use some food but nothing very heavy. Honey glazed ham, Italian sausage, or a lighter lasagna would all pair well with this wine.
Overall Impression: This is not a wine that will impress anyone but it is easy drinking and would go well with a casual meal. This one is good for the price.
