Thin, watery wine with few redeeming qualities. Harsh nose of overripe fruit, tart cherries on the palate, slightly metallic finish with a hot alcohol aftertaste. Tasted two different bottles on different dates and came away with the same impression both times. I have one more bottle on hand and will modify my review if that bottle drinks any better.

clear, ruby core, wide brick red rim. On the nose, medium intensity, pepper, bright red fruit, plum. Palate is dry, medium tannin, medium + acid, full body, spice, blackberry, lots of ripe fruit, medium length, has improved and is a very good wine, drinking now 0-2 years.

Appearance is medium ruby core, moving to a narrow ruby rim. Nose is clean, youthful with medium intensity of red berries, tomato bush, licorice & spice. The palate is dry with medium body, medium tannin, medium acid, medium flavour intensity or red fruit, vegetal & oak. Medium alcohol and medium finish. A good wine, but nothing fantastic.

Sokid fruit, smooth, light tannins and excellent with food. A Best Buy.

Opened a bottle January 2015; it was good but I think it will improve
Brought it to a dinner June 2018 - It was underwhelming
