  Clear, bright crimson cherry red, medium depth of colour 3/3
  Cherry lolly nose, a hint of violet perfume, and perhaps a touch of cigar box or pencil shavings, 6/7
  Rich generous blackcurrant and cherry fruit, boiled lolly, nice mouthfeel, medium to full body, moderately dry, mild acidity, slightly hollow after the mid palate, but returns with a very pleasant, long warm and lingering spicy and smoky finish. The tannins are delicate and subtle, in good balance. Very easy drinking, a lovely wine. 8.8/10

  Purple in color. Nose is full of red fruit (raspberry, strawberry). Acidic flavor profile that is very straight forward, without complexity. Some pepper on the finish. Good burger wine. Probably won't buy again.

  Very good for the price. Ripe and opulent with raspberries, dust, spice and licorice. Medium plus finish and quite balanced. An excellent value!
  
  So a few days later more subtle. Nice fruit and complex overall. This has been a favorite for many years and an excellent value.

  Not much more than blackberry and raspberry on the nose. Medium bodied palate of fresh cherry flavors. Already well integrated tannins at this stage, suggesting little room for improvement. Short to medium length unremarkable finish. Decent table wine for this price point.
