  Deee-licious!
  Super delicious acids and red berries galore. A winner compared to all Bojo Nouveau that I ever suffered in my life. Style is like a more dense Bojo with a happy playfulness.

  Opened instead of the other btl of Muscat Bailey A this is a real wine: incredibly intense and powerful.
  
  Light red.
  Attractive nose with attractive aromas of intense and rather appealing fruit with a teasing hint of oak.
  In the mouth we find a medium body w almost no tannins and M++ acids. delicious fruit, strawberries-and-raspberry jam with cold butter sitting on the side. Rich! I agree with myself that this is both elegant and powerful. Simply: a delicious wine with even a small personality. But the style is far from our liking.
  Home dinner, celbrating the last day of an era.
  1 btl to go, should do well for another 5 years, but delicious as it is and expecting no miracles, I suspect the last btl will go pretty soon :-)

  Wine day in Katsunuma (Japan): Light red.
  Voluminous nose with attractive aromas of REAL wine that has seen oak.
  On the palate, this is a rich, immensely intense wine with a medium body. Elegant and powerful. Tannins are M and Acids M++. A long, very delicious finish where the oak is courting the fruit in sinful ways. Also notes of caramel and cherry candy.
