  Deep purple with violet touches, this wine shows medium intensity on the nose, remembering strawberry and cherry gelly, along with a touch of oak and some floral scents. In the palate it showed medium body, tannins were soft, a little lacking in structure, but with some edges still. Acidity was high, but not to the point to unbalance the wine. It lasted fair 6-8 seconds in aftertaste. A good wine, good with food, good to be taken just for tasting. But don't expect a lot of complexity. It will probably not improve very much over time, so, drink it now.
