Thot for sure I'd posted on this but couldn't find in past. Big bold red that suprises by its' light ruby color. Made a BIG pot of my Italian Steak and was originally opening some stuff for a friend that had to beg off. Will do it again tonight. This is a nice mouthful of juice that melded seamlessly with the steak. From Robertos' jernt.Still needs time. 90/89. 65 by the box. 14.5% alc.
