As it's the lowest priced of Pondera's red wine offerings, it may be safe to assume that Melvado is the leftover-barrel blend. It's a good companion to the pricier Consensio; here the somewhat over-ripe and pruny mix of fruit does not show as much new oak, and in its soft and slightly flabby way it is ready to go and delivers a fair amount of flavor. The 15.3% alcohol definitely shows in the heat of the finish, so this is a drink-up-now wine.
