Take it upscale - tap it into a carafe and your friends will never know this dark, sultry red came from a box. It has notes of cassis, Fernet Branca, cherry tart, raspberry jam, violet, red rose, and lilac. The source is Corbieres but this is heavier, darker, and richer, if somewhat simpler, than what is typically found there.
