Nice wine. Simple but pleasing. Strawberry fruit meets meaty spice and earth. Good bbq wine.

This is a light but jammy red blend, tasting of strawberry and rhubarb. It is slightly tart on the tongue but still well balanced.

A bit of a lottery as the bottle tells you nothing about the wine but I loved it, it's perfect for my tastes! From Naked Wines.

Cherry nose with smooth finish. Not overly dry. Mild. Would buy again.

Fruity plum and cherry taste. Smooth without a lot of bite, but nice balance overall.
