Perfectly decent midweek quaffer with lots of crunch red fruits, quite peppery. There is liveliness here, but the lack of tannin cuts its expressive potential. Best popped in the fridge for 20 min. Not the best value for money, seems to speak to a certain vogueish style more than anything. Does nicely with garlic and brassica pasta dishes.

Like the previous vintage, pours a deceptively inky purple. Nose instantly proves your eyes wrong -- floral and perfumed with blue and dark red fruits and berries, subtle baking spices, and pepper. Juicy as hell with an acid profile that isn't so much obvious as it is mouthwatering and lively. It's fun as hell, but it doesn't eschew depth to get there.
Obscenely good for the money and it's pretty much the ultimate I-don't-know-what-else-to-get-tonight-or-bring-to-this-party wine.

Cherry candy smell, almost like licorice, pepper and dust. Tastes like cranberries, blueberries, strawberries, berries all around! sweet and juicy in the best of ways. Starts a party when slightly chilled. Beautiful dark purply color.
