  Deep violet in color with rich, ripe aromas of black fruit and soft herbal, spice notes. Full-bodied and ripe with blackberries, plums and a hint of warm vanilla spice. Balanced, bright flavors and supple tannins are followed by a lingering finish.
  A good "porch pounder".

  Initially spicy and tart. After breathing an hour, spice went away, red fruit came through. Fairly simple overall, not bad for the price.

  Eucalyptus and high alcohol on the nose, with a vegetal undertone. Flavors of unripe red fruit, turning sweeter towards the finish. A bit of acidity with a red fruit jam finish. This is a unique wine, but good.

  Tart up front, short on the finish, pretty simple wine. I didn't hate it :-).
