Not in the future, not yesterday, you need it NOW!

2002 Allégresse
Fresh and bright nose of blackberries, blueberries and early morning roses start off this newest release of Allégresse, consisting of Cabernet Sauvignon (77%), Merlot (15%), Cabernet Franc (5%) and Carmenère (3%). Upon hitting your palate, the layered flavors of dark berries, Belgian chocolate and coffee roll on your tongue, bending well with the full and round mouth feel this wine provides. Feel free to take your time with this young but rich wine; splash-decant or lay it down for a few years for full enjoyment.
 
I know NOTHING about wine, but this sounds yummy! :)

Not knocking it but it is a drink for gluggers and has no finer tasting points .
It is one of the many wines assembled for the peasant class who need instant taste and with a bias toward heavy fruit concentration and with no after taste or "second wind" .
Sounds snobby but it is true once you educate your palate .
