Medium ruby - garnet. The nose is clean, with medium aromas of black currant, red cherry, dried herbs, cedar and tobacco leaf. The palate is dry, with medium to medium (+) acidity, tannins and alcohol. This is a really nice little wine It is well balanced and great with food. A great value. It is drinking very well now and probably for another year or so.

Decent punch and intensity. Tons of ML oak on the nose combined with sweetish fruit makes this kinda stuffy though. Fudge, butter, popcorn, blackcurrant, slight green woody Cabernet character. Round smooth with a medium acidity, medium+ body. Modern style. Not something I would recommend, but Bdx for $15-20 can be so much worse!

Really good for the dollars. Some cassis and earth. Fresh and crisp with reasonable structure and a clean bright finish.
