Coffee and ripe black/red fruit on the nose. Medium+ body, low acidity, low tannins and a short, sweet finish with some bitter element. Heat from the high (15%) alcohol. This is ready to drink (if not slightly past it now). Didn't enjoy.

Dark fruit, currant and slight liquorice on the nose. Rather vibrant, showing jammy dark fruit with hints of liquorice and vanilla.There was a confected touch to the fruit. Diminutive acidity and tannins.The high alcohol-level (15%) was well hidden. Felt initially better, but went downhill with more airtime, turning more flabby.

Dark red, huge nose of vanilla, and opulant cherry and plum. In the mouth, soft tannins with deep almost liquor like fruit. A big big wine, very new world, which i don't usually go for, but this is a hedonistic joy if you're in the mood.
