{screwcap, 14.5%} Dark ruby. Youthful, rather riotous nose of macerated red berries and vanilla oak. Not too bad, although young. The palate is rather coarse, with soft but rather gritty tannins, and a rustic but rather bulk/commercial quality to the fairly short finish. It's not a very pretty wine at all, not especially varietal (I tasted it blind, and rather thought it was warm climate shirz), nor terribly interesting. SLightly crude commercial effort.

Great structure, with good balance of ripe fruit, alcohol, texture and acidity. A little sweet and lacks the complexity, but delicious nonetheless. Black currant, tobacco, plum and oak dominate the palate. Drink now until 2019.
