This is easy drinking. Rusty red color. Pleasant nose. Cherry. Nice long finish. Fairly well balanced and great price point. $22 at Arrowine.

Colour: ruby, starts to turn into brownish.

Nose: nice oaky flavours, vanilla, and rich bag of fruit (red cherries, liquor-cherries, raspberries), touch of herbal notes, grass, undergrowth. Seems a bit sweet to the nose.

Palate: Medium-body, a little of viscosity here; good level of acidity but not too much, nice aftertaste. Good dry vs sweet balance.
