Deep ruby red. A bit bland on the nose, a bit toasty and stewed raspberries. Even for only 13.5% alcohol it seems to have a little bit of heat. Light tannins (4/10) and light bodied. A touch paperish on the palate with some bramble berries. A little singular. Short finish. Drink now.

Color of purple, a bit bubbly and nice legs. Nose of cocoa, a bit burning in nasal cavity, in fact a bit gasoline, a bit of ripe grapes, and some dark fruits. A bit funny with that gasoline nose. Taste of nice acidity, sweet vanilla, mellow and soft with almost marginal tannins, a bit zesty rind to balance out, and a bit black tea. Aftertaste is medium long with a bit black pepper in the throat. On par.

Nice aromas of black fruit, which are echoed on the palate -- along with just a touch of anise. The wine has a pleasant texture with only a hint of tannin and moderate acidity.
