  Medium ruby purple, not quite clear.
  Light berry aromas
  Tart berry, almost sweet tart flavored
  Lowish alcohol in this category makes this a rather refreshing change.
  A bit rustic and chunky

  Purplish red hue. Excellent aromatics. Blue/blackberry pie, good spices, leather, tobacco, eucalyptus. Medium plus body, silky smooth tannins. Blueberry, cloves, underbrush, dirty black raspberry. Finishes with a nice punch of spice. Excellent. Easy drinking yet complex enough.

  This bottle was the best of this wine I have had. Nice mellow flavors of Earth, tobacco and red berries in a clean dry mouth. Finish was a touch of wood and light dry tannin.

  Pale purple in the glass with some blue tint. Ripe red cherry and plum, crushed rock and leather. Light body with nice acidity, faint sense of alcohol. Tart cherry, raspberry, and plum up front. Complimented by black tea and leather. Brief, but savory finish with notes of dried herbs.
