Tight nose, with notes of orange blossom, star anise, charred oak, blackberry, and bramble leaves. Acid-dominant structure, strong and tight, with a big, smoky flavour: cranberry, hibiscus, vanilla, oak, kindling, and dry leaves.

Black tea, blueberry and violet from the boquet. The palate has a tonne of spice, good fruit and an earthy/black tea finish, all while being hedonistic yet finesseful. Not a super complex wine but not mono-dimensional, while powerful enough with it's fruit and length... at the price point really outstanding.

Drinkable but disappointing. Lacking elegance and finesse. Aroma of red fruit and bark, on the palette, chocolate, raspberries. Short on the finish, not memorable, but easy to drink.

I thought this was pretty darn light and fruity during a hot summer. Not remarkable. But for the value a good wine.
