Drank the 2013. Light ruby color. Medium acidity smooth in mouth. Good red fruit. We drank it with shrimp in a tomato based sauce and it held up well. And only 13% alc!

Light ruby color. Medium plus acidity almost like tartaric. Aromas of dark cherry (green) and spice noise like white pepper. In the palate I taste medium body tanins. Bone dry and long legs. Taste more alcoholic then it is

Forward cherry nose. Black cherry notes with a clean pepper finish. Slightly acidic on the tongue. Pairs nicely with grilled pork steaks smoked with cherry wood. Good value.
