May 24, 2008 - If you like fruit bombs, this wine can be one of your top 3 wines to drink at a very decent price. Tasted blind with 7 other bottles. This wine had a fruit forward nose with hints of vanilla tones.
The sweet fruit notes hits you as you first drink it, then the vanilla notes, with very slight white pepper spice. Medium Bodied, lovely mouthfill of smooth tannins. By no means is it an elegant wine, but it is a very satisfying quaffer for fruit bomb lovers! It is in my opinion a little one dimensionally, but I LOVE IT! I know what wine to serve my friends who don't know how to appreciate wines and the ladies who love sweet wines! This is going to my fruit bomb choice wine to serve. Excellent QPR! -

April 19, 2008 - Color: Purple red, deep opaque
Nose: Blackcurrant, Menthol, LPG, Pepper
Palate: Full of berries and fruit, a big bolus, sweet, feels balanced at first but rapidly breaks on the tongue. The acid is a bit fresh - dont like it in such a fruity wine.
