Dark, with a nice sweet aftertaste. Not dry but you can taste a hint of wood. It's a bit sour, but the fullness compensates for this. I really loved this wine! Definitely worth its price!

Strong blackberry undertone. Pleasant taste with some bite at the end and a tannic finish. Good wine but lacking in complexity.
