Absolutely! Good recommendation. We bought it on a whim, at a mini-DO with MrpAlert at Hugo's cellar in the 4 Queens, Las Vegas; unfamiliar with the grape, on the sommelier's recommendation, we said "Go for it!"; and we were more than pleasantly surprised at it's drinkability! We got so tanked, on Belvedere prior, and Tuaca after, I barely could remember the grape we drank with dinner, let alone how to spell it.

Okole maluma!

(Bottoms up!)
