  Candied red fruit, quite heavy, which hides the high alcohol. No real tannic structure. Overwrought and flabby.

  Simple and light, an easy drinker that doesn’t challenge the senses but certainly doesn’t offend them - or the wallet for that matter.
  Strawberry and raspberry. At initial pour there was a spice component but as the drinking session went on it became more candied.
  Acquired in trade with a fellow CellarTracker.

  Light body, lively acidity and noticeable tannins. Notes of cherry, coffee and smoked meat.

  Medium, ruby-garnet colour. Aromatic, ripe and rounding red berry with leather, floral, smoke and grapefruit rind notes. Complex and evolving flavours with a warming alcohol that is almost invisible due to the supporting acidity. Dynamic and flavourful fruit, and earth finish.
  4.5/5

  Black cherries, raspberries, plums, and some spice in the medium to long finish. Not a lot of complexity, but nice varietal characteristics. Medium bodied, drink over the next 2-3 years. Scored 89-90.
