Remarkable wine. Almost pale ruby. Nose is alpine air, cranberry, bitter herbs. As it warms up from cellar temp it shows more red fruit. On the palate medium plus acid, very balanced mouthfeel. Reminds me of a Mencía or a light Italian red. Very old world.

Fairly deep color. The nose shows aromas of wild red fruits, herbs, flowers and a hint of spices. This is medium light bodied on the palate with good concentration and very good class. The medium plus length finish features moderate grip.

Very young and approachable for a Ravines CF. That said, it definitely needs more time to show its stuff. The rough edges (more green wood than tannin though plenty of tannin) show through with many foods; best paired with a very full flavored dish right now.

Aroma of red fruit and some herbs. Light body and tannins, moderate acidity, 13% ABV, some black pepper. It adds up to a very versatile food friendly wine.
