ChTR kokous 26.09.2012 (SKO-toimisto): Decanted, tasted double blind. A fairly dark granite red. The nose was fairly full on, thick, cola, blackberries, a hint of bacon. The palate was also very fruity, with blackberries and some tannins, a bit of sweetness. Easy to spot as a South American big fruity wine. But nice in its own way.

(Not formal tasting notes as I had a cold, tough to be a "sniffer"!) Lots of Cab Sauv characteristic. Fruit forward on the palate, but not at all sweet. Medium tannin and acid, good balance. Long finish, drinking really well.

Lots of dark cherry/berry fruit on nose and palate, with some coffee and hints of earthiness on nose that faded quickly. Dense but not complex fruit forward wine with a medium length finish.

On the nose some sweet dark fruit.Medium to full bodied palate with vibrant dark plummy fruit and hints of liquorice.However,not quite in balance.Somehow too sweet and hot.Rather boring.
