A really light and lovely red, somewhat ethereal compared to expectations and recent heavy South American reds we’ve been drinking.  Cherry, vanilla, licorice, wood, sharp tannins which mellow on the palate, a long finish reminiscent of clove and rosewater.  This has time to spare; keep it on the shelf if you have a shelf (and self discipline).

Price: Gifted, but $35 at BCL (and, at that price, despite the fact we liked it, we’ll pass)

Market Liquidity: Everyday plonk, I guess, for the 1%-ers.
