Bright dark red almost to the edge, nose of rain on schist, red berry, pomegranate... nice red berry, some acid balanced with light powdery tannins .. pleasant enough and certainly not offensive, but lacking that CO ripeness, the big CO intensity... polite, subtle perhaps to its detriment at an Asian fusion restaurant. Nice but not what you're looking for at that restaurant, shame.

P&p. Earth/gravel, leafy/twiggy, mushroom, cool dark-red fruit aromas, offering some rustic, 'old world' character. Some spicy oak, not too much. Tart dark red fruit on the palate; heaps of acidity; light on tannins. Tasty, glouglou, enjoyable entry level wine from an excellent producer, good value.
