  Opened 2 hours before serving. Lively Ruby with purple reflections. At nose sweet of dark fruits, prunes, and orange peel candied. Nice background of spices - cloves, black pepper, sandalwood. At palate fat and alcoholic, but with drying tannins. Medium long finish.

  Pleasant and very drinkable. Enjoyed it with some Gruyere cheese.

  nose of wild cherries, plums; on the palate medium bodied, fleshy with sweet menthol and mineral notes linger. Wine made to meet mainstream taste.

  Great nose and palate of blackberry, plum and wood spice. Simple. Nice structure and tannin. Medium finish with nice grip.
