A bit tart with fruit forward flavors, cherry, cranberry with a little heat. Nice weight with light red color, but does not feel like it will hold much longer.

Much lighter wine than expected in flavor, but deep red color. The flavors seem muted and comes across a bit tart. The bouquet is subtle, but beautiful. I am picking up hints of dark cherry and a little vanilla. There is a bit of heat, as it comes off stronger than the 13.2% listed on the bottle. As it warms up the flavor continues to elude me.

The alcohol was a bit forward upon opening. So I would let open a bit, but feel the wine could still be cellered for another year or two. A well rounded wine.
