  Largely what it should be, if not as rustic as some. Good fruit, decent acidity, some cocoa. Dark on the nose, decidedly brighter, more red fruit on the palate. Long-ish finish, good for price point. Solid, if not great.

  Another nice bottle. Black cherry, plum, tobacco, earth, red cherry, flowers, and a little chocolate. Juicy red cherry, tart cherry, earth, and chocolate on the palate. Good acidity and decent finish.

  Silky and smooth but yet powerful. Goes very well with meat and tomato sauces when not too spicy, otherwise it might enhance the tannings and become too strong for some. But also goes very well with just a snack of olives and salamis or by itself. Drink now.

  Пышное, яркое, очень сочное, праздничное, "вкусное" вино с хорошим соотношением цена-качество. В аромате сладкая слива, очень спелая черная смородина, немного специй. Вкус с выраженной ягодной сладостью, умеренной кислотностью и танинностью. Последвкусие среднее.

  Consistent with the last two bottles (chocolate covered cherries, a little earth). Good acidity. Can hold up to fairly powerful tomato sauces. Like the last bottle, develops a off-putting chemical smell around day 2 or 3 (in the fridge), but that disappears after awhile... 88-89
