Altipiano Vineyard

This is fantastic. If you don't like heavier bodied wines but like sweetness, then this is it. I can see it standing up to a roast but also easy enough for a night in cuddled up on the sofa. Plums galore. I think a very approachable wine that would please nearly every dinner guest.
Color: It's super dark. Like a dark purple and you cannot see into any abyss. Yet, it draws you in with ita deep gem purple tones. Royalty and wishes await you. So dark andbrich in purple that you cannot see through it.
Aroma: very light aroma with a super subtle smokey, tobacco, and leathery aroma. There's a lovely fruity juicy scent that makes you mouth water. It's a dark plum pulling your forward, like sweetly stewed and ready for the weekend roast.
Taste: Soft and very plummy (like stewed plums or prunes for the dried fruit connoisseurs). It's fruit forward and delcious. Ita kinda heavy but not like a cab more like a bundle a prunes in a soup made into a sauce for a hearty evening roast. So smooth like aladdin playing smooth jazz to woo jasmine. It's kinda light actually but the stewed sweetness weighs it down. Wonderful. There's a finish where tartness finishes at the end for a finish towards the tip of the tongue.
