It is full of ripe red plums and polished earthy notes of game and soil. The plate is considerably spicier, with drips of black pepper and drops of olive brine. It is totally tasty and easy to sip (slowly) solo, but it would be even more prime with food.

This was the only kind of stand out at a tiny hole in the wall LQ store. With all the usual commercial brands I chose this one out of desperation. Not a bad find for the price. Had good standard GSM notes. Slight chill was helpful. Surprisingly balanced.

So so so much cranberry mid palate. Incredibly dominant. Surrounded by tannin and chalky spice but it's too damn overpowering.

Full bodied and fairly dry but smooth at the same time. Phenomenal crimson color

A fraction on the sweet side but still pleasant.

Very smooth. Doesn't come across as tannic at all. Berry fruits and a hint of tobacco.
