Not a perfect Nero. But adequate. Hard to fault a 10-15 dollar wine for falling short, so I will be brief. Not enough acidity to make it utile for food. Muted bouquet. Plenty of fruit, and fair mouthfeel, got better with cheese, like the mice that ran after the farmer's wife. But still missing anything resembling a tail.

Simple red that paired well with a cigar. Smooth and balanced.
