I have had very mixed results with CR wines over the years. They've never been awful, they just haven't been especially compelling. I note that the abv on your bottle was 12.1%--that's impressive. If I see this around, I'll pick up a bottle--thanks!
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov
