Hollow and uninteresting, bad for all the opposite reasons of the last wine. Muddled, vague body and nose, slightly alcoholic and vapid throughout. Nothing bright, nothing alive, nothing compelling. A lackluster drop of aging-horribly, flabby water dyed red and injected with the lowest-common-denominators of claret infusion. I can’t even call this a decent Merlot. Purchased by Warroom, these are older vintages going on steep clearance for whatever reason having nothing to do with Warroom’s re-defining the brand. A pond-water finish will swear even the most forgiving palate off red wine forever.
