Nice density, dark cherries on the nose. Crisp and clean on the palate, good fruit (mainly cherries again), nothing over the top, very subtle and well balanced. Great mouth feel, finish is nice. Overall enjoyed this one quite a bit. Great food wine.

light reddish orange color. Not much of a nose. A little mint and ripe cherry nose. A hint of metal on the nose. Luden cherry cough drops and watermelon jolly rancher flavor. A bit of heat on the nose. Light flavors rose petals. Dry. Acid medium high. A bit of plastic smell features on the nose. A tiny but of minerals. Decent not amazing.

Weekly tasting group #029; A fully blind test. (@ RvD): Transparent red. The bouquet is reticent and a bit earthy with some red fruits like strawberry. PnP the wine was disappointing with mainly soft acidity, firm bitterness and some autumn forest. After a few hours of air it showed much better and more harmonious. More red fruits and creamy impressions appeared. Wait until 2014 or 2015.
