Saturday, August 20, 2011 - Very straightforward nose of plum, red fruits, licorice, hints of vanilla. Smooth attack, medium-bodied palate with very soft tannins. Made to instantly please the palate, no tannic structure to talk about. Slightly alcoholic finish and typical new world sweetness (which I don't really like). Aromas seem almost 'forced' into the wine, giving something of a fake impression. For 6€ this is an easy mid-week wine to pair with pasta or grilled meats. Rebuy: I get bored quickly of this kind of wine, so probably not. Drink now/soon.
