Talk about bottle variation. First bottle (reviewed earlier) was not great, this is better (although nothing special - low base!). Its a blend of red and blue fruits, jubey almost in character, on the nose, with a hint of oak. Palate is sour fruited certainly to start, and the acidity to close is noticeable and a touch adjunct, but there is enough simple red and blue fruits squeezed in between to make it a decent, simple wine. Drink now, don't delay.

Nose - caramalised red and blue fruits, touch of smoke, one dimensional. Palate - lots of red and blue fruit initially, then swept away by mid palate grainy and woody tannins, fruits tries to stage a back palate comeback but too little and too late. It's ok, but I wouldn't rush out to buy it.
