Deep ruby core, medium pale ruby rim. Attractive if relatively simple strawberry fruited nose, floral notes, hint of earth and a slight bitter edge. Full bodied, attractive strawberry fruit, good depth, note of soil on medium/good length finish. Good, still going strong.

Served lightly chilled. Pale/medium ruby/purple. Dark cherry nose, attractive bitter amaretto edge. Youthful, not particularly intense, but a little earthy complexity. More juicy dark cherry on the palate, some strawberry coming through too, same attractive bitter edge. Vibrant, fresh acidity and a little fine tannin. Not hugely intense on the mid-palate but does linger pleasantly on the perhaps slightly warm finish. All in all a very good effort though and good for the price (£7).

Nummy. Purple but not hyper. Plum/classic Dolcetto nose. Very full mid-palate. This wine absolutely delicious now, and no hard feelings, but this wine has a full decade in front of it if you go for that kind of thing.

Lived up to its billing - smooth and fruity - a really good nose - and a long smooth finish
