Pretty sure this bottle was flawed...smelled like fermenting watermelon and actually felt carbonated on the palate. I think the fairest description of this wine is moldy sangria.

Big red fruit nose, redcurrant and strawberry. It’s crunchy and quite ripe on the entry, like a cherry cola and sour cranberries. Becomes much drier on the middle, the tannins and flavour reminiscent of a cup of tea. Quite savoury at the back of the palate, very dry with a little toasty note lingering on the finish.

A little too restrained for my taste. Hard to tell the varietals. Little expression of the site. Drinkable and a nice wine but not in the higher extracted style I prefer.

Lightish ruby color, with just a touch of haze. Nice nose of watermelon, pomegranate, red cherries. Light-bodied and somewhat tart on the palate, with red-fruit flavors leading over some earthy spice flavors, very pleasant. Finishes quickly with some grip and low tannins. Fun and delicious. Could improve with age.

I enjoyed the 2013 more than this. Good everyday wine. Juicy and incredibly aromatic. Unpretentious. Like biting into the juiciest black plum.
