Dried blood red. Blueberry, garrigue, and vodka on the nose. Full bodied, black cherries, spices, dirty blackberries, smoke and fire, herbs, and tannins that hit on the long dry finish. A nice take on Alicante Bouschet, even if its a little hot.

Good, but not as interesting as I hoped from Swilly. Nice ripe (but not overripe) fruit, some earthy elements and nice acidity. Not much tannin to speak of.
