Colour: Strawberry Red, Definitely a Dark Rose. Aroma: Old World style with that Pinot Noir Quality Creeping in, Game/Funk/Fungal. Taste: Starts off with Strawberry/Rhubarb with a good amount of acidity when Chilled. Then when it warms up moves into a Creamy, Rich, Full bodies Wine but with a lot of Pinot Noir Qualities with a Good Cranberryness coming through. Very Nice

This Wine to say the least is interesting, changing back and forth from Sweet Fruity, to that Licorice/Molasses/Pumpernickel flavour. Colour: Dark Red with a tinge of Purple. Aroma: The nose is medium intensity but it has this character to almost give you a headache. It has A Molasses / Pumpernickel Bread / Licorice [real stuff btw] on it with a red fruit that has a Artificial / Medicinal Value Crazy I know. Taste:Medium Body, Cherry[check] Licorice, sweet but the acidity balances the acidity, but yet its sweet in a crazy type of way. This wine I say you need to try just for the fact it bounces around would be great for a wine tasting party with people trying to figure it out hah. Decanted for about 1.5hrs in my UFO decanter

Colour Very Dark Cherry Syrup looking. Aroma on of Plum/Prune with spice, very concentrated and big, Smelling this reminds me of my last Chianti I had, it has that Italian Nose. day2 it was earthy and spice. Tsate Medium Body, Acid Levels are good, very little tannins very smooth, Friui and Spice and can feel the alc on the 2nd day, the fruit started to fade. This isn'y my style of wine neither is Sangovise or Chianti. But well made
