There’s a leathery background to a red fruit top. I wish it had a bit more peppery/spicy notes to liven it up.

Unexpected lightness that was quite pleasant. Better the second day. Notes of plum and cloves, some acidity.

There’s a savory, meaty quality that I liked. There’s some fruit and peppery notes, but they’re more restrained. This makes it interesting and fun to drink.

Great for the price. Buttery feel but with a good touch of acidity.

Fruit forward but nice structure behind. A touch of funkiness that’s very welcome. Leather notes.

Notes of strawberry without being sweet. There’s a light effervescence and touch of acidity at the end but also light. Some funk on the nose but subtle.

Sweet nose, smells almost like apricot and banana to me, with some candy notes. On the palate it has some acidity but still more on the fruity side of things.

Blackberries on the nose. Apples and cinnamon on the palate later, lovely acidity. Soft tannins, not too fruity and somewhat restrained but very enjoyable.

Strong notes of cherries, good acidity almost lemon like, bit of minerality in the background. Had with roasted chicken and tasted awesome!

Mellow taste, mostly pineapple notes, touch of lemon peel. Not bad for $11.
