This Was Just Plain BAD!

Before I left on vacation, I purchased this wine from Trader Joe's. I was looking for something different, but not THIS different!! It is "Zarafa Pinotage 2005". Says to have "a fruity, plummy nose with soft tannins and a lingering aftertaste". A lingering aftertaste it had....not a good one. It smelled and tasted of pepper. Very strong at that. I even put it in a decantor, thinking it needed to breathe, but it never got any better. What an experience to have with my first dinner back home. I am just glad I wasn't offering it to others!
