This is my lowest scoring wine on Wine Align, and one of the least pleasurable wines I have tasted in a while. I prefer my fathers home made kit wine. The colour would make me think it was at least 10 yrs old. Low intensity on aroma, maybe some barrel spice and sour cherry. The wine was flabby yet highly acidic at the same time. Use for cooking or marinating. Tasted Mar '12.
