  The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are slow. It smells like espresso, lead pencil, apple and prune. It tastes like plum, plum and medium toast. The body is light/medium. The wine has fleshy texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

  Light floral nose with a medium bodied austere cherry palate. A Tuesday night drink now kind of wine.

  Pungent, gamy nose. Lean blackberry and licorice. Too severe and aggressive, little charm.
