Nose of a Rhône blend with something else in there I can’t place. Med to fairly light body, good fruit, some gritty tannins. 14.5 but doesn’t taste like it.

Juicy raspberry and cranberry and a hint of peppercorn. Zippy acidity, light and easy drinking.

Not particularly exciting. Flat taste. Fruits that I cannot place.

Red blend from Lebanon. Earthy on the nose with dark fruit. Medium plus palate with raisin plum dried fruit notes. Medium tannins and bright acidity.
