Dark red to magenta. Somewhat tight nose of strawberries and a touch of spice. Exploding cherries, raspberries, pomegranites, a gentle touch of oak, light to medium bodied, and a lingering cherry juice finish. Fruity, but not in an "in your face" way, and very good.

Medium light ruby. Fruity, raspberry, a bit bubble-gummy. Juicy and pleasant, but a touch hot and acidic only on the finish.
