Color a vibrant ruby, decanted and allowed to sit for 1 hour prior to dinner. Nose of light perfumes, spices, my Uncle Abe's cigar(but nowhere near as intense), and some light fruits. Mouthfeel was lovely, with some glycerine and light soft tannins. Light fruits, not intense, struggling to escape. Quite decent finish. This bottle is from URUGUAY.....nice QPR at $8.99

I do not want to beat a dead horse with this so to speak, but I had my second of these tonight. This is a decent wine and for $8.99 someone ought to buy one.

Never had a wine from Uruguay, and I'm not likely to find it in any of the local wine stores, but if I see it it, I'll buy it on your advice.

Later,
Mark, N.H.
