The blend of 50% Cabernet, 30% Merlot and 20% Sangiovese came from Gargiste for a tab of $19.99.There was a lot going on in both the aromas and flavors. On the nose I picked up cedar, rose petal, earthy plum, strawberry and raspberry. This carried through on the palate, along with bittersweet chocolate and coffee. It had a lingering cranberry-like finish.
I feel this wine is drinking nicely right now and has a nice melange of flavors that keep it interesting, never tiring. It's well worth a two thumbs up recommendation.
