Granny Smith apple, lemon curd, dried apricot, honey and tropical fruit. Decent acidity and balance.

An excellent red blend. Shell wasn't a fan, but man I love it. Has a complex flavor while not being too sweet. A definite do-over for me.

Ordinary red wine among its only utility's is its low (12%) alcohol content. It is visually unattractive as it passes blush into a merely weak red. Lacks complexity in every conceivable dimension.
