Cherry aroma. A thin wine showing unbalanced acidity, which has now eclipsed the fruit, with cherries, strawberries, and a nice earthy finish. A scorched earth finish actually, with too much acidity. Absolutely needs food.

Tight and short with fresh but unfortunately harsh acidity that doesn't go away with air. The aroma is attractive showing strawberries, but that's about it. There just isn't much fruit left in this wine, there wasn't much to begin with, and screechy acidity. It does work with fatty foods though, so if you have some in your cellar consider serving it with steak frites.

Primarily translucent garnet with orange impinging throughout. Sweet aroma of dark berries and cherries. Saturated flavors of tart, juicy berries, dark plums and cherries. Flavor lasting a full minute on the palate. Not complex but deeply saturated, bright and fresh. A delicious glass of wine that has years of life remaining.

Drinking smooth now. Nice aroma of plums. Good body, but not complex.
