New oak and volatile acidity aromas, and a little mocha, cedar, and blueberry.
Fares better on the palate, with mocha blackberry, and sweet blueberry, although the 14+% abv shows and is a bit off-putting.

I love Sineann pinot noir, but every other wine is not my favorite wine. This merlot is as fruity without being sweet as it gets. I hate it! Im so disappointed! I just poured the bottle down the drain!

Dark Scarlet core and Persian Plum rim.
Nose: fresh wet forest and hints of berries and hints of caramel.
Palate: full-bodied, fresh to crisp acidity, dry, well structured tannins and regardless of the high alcohol content 14.8%, it is well-balanced.
Flavors: sweet spices, dark ripe fruit, hints of chocolate.
Finish is moderate.
