Purple colour with slight red tinge. Bouquet is pepper and earth. Flavours of leather, dark cherry, plum, chocolate. Moderate acidity. Body is moderately light. Flavours do not linger. An easy to drink bottle but nothing particularly complex

Concentrated, full-bodied, high alcohol. Simple profile dominated by puckering acidity and burning alcohol. Muted, stewed red and blue fruits. It's a passable table wine to be served with rich meat dishes, pizza or grilled burgers. I don't see any point in holding on to this wine. Wouldn't buy again.

Very solid wine. Great big dark fruit. Nice structure. A little one dimensional but lovely.

Good acid and body, and quite a bit of sulfur. 14.5% ABV.

Darker in color. Dark fruit and alcohol aromas. Juicy dark cherry flavors with heat, nice acidity and a lengthy finish.
