Pop and pour delicious red with enough Zin to give some nice zing to the palate. Well-blended.

Bordering on jammy but without the gross aftertaste of too much berry. Overall okay!

Medium body. Dark berries dominate the palate. On the drier side, but well balanced tannins. Eminently drinkable, but unremarkable.

Spice (lots) and berries. Very good. Ate with salad and tomato-based soup.

Great wine for the price! The 2015 vintage was very spicy which I love but don’t be fooled by the “hint of spice” tasting notes on the back. This has a full on kick of spice and can liven up any meal
