  Red, with some red/brown color around the edges. Red berries, leather and good integrated wood. Medium body, with decent acidity and pretty good length.

  Deep ruby in colour with pure aromas of plum and black cherry. Nicely balanced yet under oak influence. Mild tannins and the medium weight makes this an accessable, easy drinking wine.

  Firm earthy wine with inky-graphite on the initial attack - giving way to briars, cedar notes and firm tannins. There is dark fruit in there but it is a bit elusive because it is masked by the bracing wood and earth tastes. It'd be better if the fruit could assert itself more, but I don't think age will help with this very much. The best facet of this wine is the long finish, which offers up a smokiness moderated by a lovely hint of strawberry -- it lasts for ages. Overall, this is a solid wine at a good value, probably best with red meat dishes.
