I picked up this wine at the lovely West Lakeview Liquors (http://www.wlvliquors.com) for $18.49. Its a little pricey for the bottle, and for what I normally drink but it was well worth it. Even Chad liked it, and he usually doesn't like wine at all. I went in with a Chocolate Sachre Cake that I had just made in class and the guy helped me find a nice yet cheap-ish red that would go nicely with a chocolate cake. He was right.
When I poured the glass it had a nice burgendy, full red colour that didnt separate too much. It smelled of earthy tones, apples, and something that remided me of the seashore. Tasting it, you could taste the tannins (http://www.wineanorak.com/tannins.htm) quite strongly, but was paired with a nice taste of spices and cherries. Definitely good when paired with something sweet.
