Colour tending towards brick red, nose rather backward on opening. Huge fruit, difficult to pin down a taste - rather like blackberry cordial? 30 minutes later, some acidity and tannin trying to make themseles felt - was this made by an Australian I wonder? It's all fruit and no substance. Not, really, a very good drink, but someone in the winemaking process was obviously trying hard, and maybe future years will be better. Not a style that i like at all and I shan't and wont be buying it in the future!
