Pours sangria in color. ON THE NOSE: Violets and red berries with a slight alcohol burn. ON THE PALATE: black cherry. Medium (-) body and short finish. Not a complex wine, but not meant for storing. Drink young.

Blackberry, raspberry, currant, eucalyptus, mossy earth, vanilla and oak. Good structure and well-integrated tannins.
