  This wine is Ruby colored. The bouquet smells of raspberry, strawberry, forest floor and menthol. On the palette, big violet and oakiness, along with blueberry and petrol notes. Light body and a short finish. An average table wine.

  Light bodied with simple red fruit and a bit of spicy character. Became more rounded over the course of a few hours. Better than expected.

  Exactly as i expected, but pricey for this for sure...other comments are similar to mine, although i would not dramatize the experience as much as one of the original reviews does...this is light, fruity and one dimensionally simple. Some bubble gum and cherry on nose and hints of both on palate, although mainly cherry fruit driven. No significant tannin/acid - light bodied. Great just by itself or with light food...this would be a push over with significant culinary competition.

  Village Wine Tasting (Village Hall): Good Village Bojo. Red fruits, some spice and hints of bubblegum and banana.
