Very creamy and pleasant drinking but not a lot of fruit flavour. Sweet tasing with some hint of vanilla and a bit of a carmel aftertaste.

Plum, graphite, vanilla, and tobacco on the nose. A bit muted and unbalanced — a little too much vanilla and spice and not enough fruit. And definitely not enough earth. But for the price point, this is solid.

Color of cranberry juice with a bit of purple hue on the rim. Nose of fresh cranberry, plum, some vanilla, however nose fades away a bit too fast. Taste is quite pleasing, with subtle sweetness, zesty, cranberry, tinkling on the tongue, and some spice at the end. Very easygoing. Aftertaste of some more bittersweet zest, sweetness, vanilla flavor, spice, and medium long. Kind of crowd pleaser.

Really liked it. Great notes of vanilla and caramel in an affordable wine.
