Color: Dense/ruby/purple. The nose on this wine was very inviting. Aroma: Raspberry, plums and currants. Tasting notes: Currants, smoke and tobacco. Light mouthfeel, alcohol was noticeable. I get a hint of sweetness on the finish, but nothing out of the ordinary. It is a great sipper and it went very well with pasta.

A pretty wine of deceptive complexity. Medium violet. Fairly high-toned aromas of raspberry, plum, and currant, with subtler suggestions of vanillin oak, smoke, and earth. Bright yet smooth, thanks to lingering flavors of currant/smoke/tobacco, light extraction, and soft tannins.

Nice out of bottle though a bit cool to start (58F). Smooth and yummy. Wish we had a few more bottles.
