The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, black currant (cassis) and fig. The body is medium/full. The wine has round texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

The wine was crimson colored. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like petrol, ethanol, alcohol/hot and medicinal. The body is medium/full. The wine had an oily texture. The wine finishes long yet had only medium acidity. Decanted for 4 hours after opening sips, still out of balance. But... the next day it was amazingly drinkable. rate 85 1st day / 89 the 2nd day. Such a huge wine on release, my hope was the fruit and alcohol would remain in balance with age. Can't honestly say they did.

crisp apple/strawberry notes, well balanced & surprisingly fresh for a four yr old rose' blend.
