June 20, 2020 - Great value for money, this is already drinking very well. My only criticism would be the whopping 15% alcohol content.

July 10, 2015 - Drank this at Swatou Seafood Restaurant with the ETCeteras.
Smooth, silky with rounded tannins and notes of raspberries and mocha. Velvety with some smoky and tobacco aromas. Medium to full body with a delicately balanced composition, easy on the palate with some peppery and spice notes in the finish.
Excellent in its youth and should get a lot better over time. This wine is fantastic value for its selling price.
