  Welch's grape juice with vodka. I expected more fromantic a good vinTage and good vineyard. So lush and ripe and heady. It had blackcurrant, concord grapes, dark chocolate, vanilla, and alcohol. Pleasurable only in a hedonistic sense.

  Decanted for an hour, opens up with sweet vanilla and massive blackcurrant. Fruit bomb all the way. It is too much of everything and @ alc 15% it is not exactly easy to handle.

  Dark purple and inky in color. Dark fruit, cassis and slight spice on the nose. Dark fruit, plums with soft tannins and medium dry finish. This was enjoyable and good value.

  nose: lush, concentrated black-and-blueberry. black pepper. tea leaf, mint, cedar, and an herbaceousness.
  
  palate: dense, almost syrupy. dry, with big velvety tannins, but exploding with plum, dark chocolate, dark berries, and spice. finish is very long, like dried fruit, and dusty.
  
  utterly delicious. acidity was a bit hidden, and the alcohol is rather high, but everything else is soo good...
