Slightly cloudy, moderately extracted red. Red fruit notes in nose. Cherry-berry flavor with length, veg, tobacco flavors initially, tart, moderate to heavy amounts of fine-grain tannin astringency in finish. Slightly hot, bitter aftertaste. Decant, have patience. Cherry and raspberry flavors with length develop, tannins soften, acids mellow; plum aftertaste. This one is a pleasure after being open 24 hours, if you like good tasting uncomplicated fruit.

Nose: ripe red fruit, candy. Smooth on the tongue, palate reminiscent of candy syrup, lots of fruit. Finishes with light tannins and some pepper and spice. Lighter body Malbec, but nice in its own right.

Great value, subtle tannins, a little on the sweet side with notes of blackberry and currents
