At the opening of the bottle a rush of clean sweet ripe strawberry rushes over my face to follow with juicy raspberries then dusty soil on a warm summer day. There is also a hint of smokey oak with a bit of caramel. In the mouth it opens with the good red fruits with a sense of minerality. There is firm ripe tannins and the fruit continues on with a good long finish that ends with wet stones. Not a bad wine at all.

Black cherry, deep in color. Very fresh slightly tannic. This could most definitely be a Kim wine!

Slightly heavier body. Dark fruit, smoked meat, caramel, faint baking spices. Delicious
