A bit bitey on night 1 but settled well over the following 24hrs. Mild licorice, tang, some pongy fruits (maybe a hint of dead fruit). A first for me with this grape.

Als Kochwein zum Aufpeppen eines deftigen Sugos, als Trinkwein dazu tut er sich schon schwer. Harmlos, sollte spätestens ein Jahr nach Abfüllung bereits getrunken sein.

A quite lovely combination of candied cherry, redcurrant, cranberry giving a lovely bright red fruit profile, and mulling spices giving depth. Some savory, meaty character, too. Low tannin, medium acid, best with a chill on it to emphasize its refreshing qualities. At higher temperatures it becomes a bit lackluster. Nice stuff for the $10 we paid for it, reasonable value at $15, too. 13%.

Konnte diesmal leider nicht viel. Vordergründig in der Frucht, kein Grip, wenig Struktur und Komplexität, letztendlich belanglos. Hatte ich komplett anders in Erinnerung.

Strawberry and bubble gum. High acidity. Medium tannin. Pepper.

Delicious! A bit light but easy drinking. Would buy a case for everyday wine.

light body, zero makeup, refreshing and surprisingly complete (savoriness, fruit, spices...). Wish for a little more texture.

Brisk, eager but slightly lean. Some rusticity and nice tart cranberries. Could use a bit more stuffing. Wouldn't buy again.
