Fairly full-bodied, with a dark berry fruit profile and a meaty, gamey overlay. Very good CdR for which I probably paid $11-12 a few years ago.

FYI ethics has to do with what is right and what is wrong, which is what my question dealt with. I can't see why one person can post on a wine that was a close out that nobody could take advantage of, and another poster was forced to move a post on a purchase at Trader Joe's. I can see where a ten or twelve dollar Barolo or Barbaresco at TJs, though may be tasty, would be unfairly compared to better examples of those wines. However a 2011 Tommolo Montepulciano d'Abruzzo at $6.99 can be compared with other Montes that are three or five dollars more, and IMHO is a much better wine that others I have tasted. If a Monte is not an obscure enough grape, that may be true for board participants. Go out on the street and ask ten people what a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is and you won't get many answers. And this is a value that anyone, in this country at any rate, can take advantage of.
