As a sipper with Pecorino Romano and water crackers: a deep opaque red giving crushed red berries and black pepper on the nose, berries emerge dominant on the palate as the pepper recedes, nice mouthfeel and moderate finish with 13% alc/vol. More stuffing than most other $8-buck wines. Would make a fine party wine.

Same here, IK. They're going head-to-head with the Spaniards to see who can sell the most juice to the Norte Americanos, and we're the winners.
