  What a disappointment - red cherry kirsch fruit on the nose, very little spiciness and a quite disturbing sensation of alcohol. This goes on on the palate, leaving little space for the pure fruit to come forth between alcohol and sweetness - some good length here, but that's about it. Drink up!

  Vibrant fruity nose.On the palate very fruit forward and jammy.The acidity and tannins are overpowered by the jammy fruit here.Almost like concentrated berry juice.Drinking nicely though and I guess that friends of fruity wines like it. I had expected though a more balanced and structured wine from this producer and appellation.
