Dark cherry and cranberry with a pretty decent, almost chocolaty finish. This is a full-bodied wine with a refreshing acidity that nicely balances out the prevalent but not-overpowering tannins. This red is refreshingly dry but fruity; reminiscent of dark chocolate but complex beyond what I am used to as a tight budget wine taster.

Very fruity berry taste blasts your taste buds with an overpowering syrupy sweetness that overtakes and almost ruins what is otherwise a pleasant burst of mixed berries. Very light bodied.
The finish is clean and pleasant and there are no off flavors but this red could stand to be a lot more dry.

Very crisp, clean and tart with a pleasantly refreshing acidity and low tannins making this a very easy to drink red. Very fruity, filled with a delicious taste of berries without being too sweet.
I would recommend this red for anyone who is put off by the heaviness, tannic and overpowering nature of many red's. Goes down very easy.
