The wine looks Garnet colored. The legs are Medium. The body is Light/Medium. The wine finishes Short. Not much aroma. Tart. Could use some mellowing with time.

ChTR kokous 24.11.2010 (SKO-toimisto): Decanted for an hour, tasted double blind. A nice ruby red with a tinge of brown on the edge. The nose was very expressive with lots of cassis, vanilla and coffee, even a bit of violets. The palate was much the same, with lots of tannins as well and some sweet oak. Quite an ok quaffer, very fruit forward and somehow fit well with the blizzard we are having today.

Better than expected, some dark earth/tar with good fruit and balance. My favorite wine of the evening. Excellent value for the price I paid.

Light in structure but a good flavor profile. Complement to a light pot toast, did reasonably well.

Candy like, but in a good way. Earthy, autumn leaves. Except for a few flavor pops, short finish.
