Popped and poured, not much airing. On the nose subtle red toned fruit. On the palate medium bodied, smooth and supple, delivering bright and tart red fruit/berries with a spicy twist, firm acidity and rather gentle tannins. Felt very solid, balanced and youthful. Really delicious with great value.

Couldn't wait to open my second bottle. Absolutely recalled the fruit forward, berry-laden nose. Along with the pepper and very faint spice, I can also get a whiff of light chocolate and tobacco. Perhaps it was my honeymoon on the first bottle - the finish isn't as awe-inspiring as my first tasting note might lead you to believe, but enjoyable, nevertheless. This may be this wonderful wine paling in comparison to a couple of very nice bottles I had recently, but at this price - there really should be no complaining. I'll be ordering a couple more bottles to fill in the empty spots these last two bottles left behind.

Berries, berries, berries!!! Intense, in your nose fruit with hints of pepper, nutmeg, and faint cinnamon. Acidity is a bit forward, but balances out nicely after a swirl in the mouth. Unexpectedly complex for the price! If I had to criticize, it's a teeny bit thin in feel. Finish is wonderful.

Drink now. Still good but has lost some of the magic.
