Brief tasting note. Dark purple color. Aromatic, dark fruit and licorice predominating, smells "sweet". Medium acid, full body, moderate tannin, moderate+ finish. Tasty, delicious, simple wine - not much complexity but if you like fruit-forward wines, you'll enjoy this.
Brief tasting note. Ripe, juicy black and blue fruit notes. On the palate, a touch of spice, medium acidity/body/tannins and moderate finish with low complexity. OK wine, but not particularly exciting.
