Has totally lost the alchohol - very flat in taste. Definetely over the top - use it for glogg if you have any bottles. So much oak barrels in taste - if you are in doubt how oak barrels taste, then try this. It is very dominant, and it really is not enjoyable to this extent.

Weekly tasting group #073; Red wines from the Mediterranean. (@ BD): Sweet red fruits in the bouquet, some vanilla as well. On the palate a lot of sweetness, white chocolate, vanilla again, red currant juice, cinnamon and rhubarb. Good length. Tasted blind and I was surprised it was this wine. I usually don't like it, but this vintage seems to be ok.

Full-bodied fruit flavor started slow but came forward as the wine opened up over time. Pepper nose was particularly good and pleasant.

Good spicyness, full bodied, but just a bit too sweet
