Rich aroma of fruit, dark cherries enticing you to take a sip. However, once tasting begins, feel overwhelmed with sweetness which then gives way to very soft tannins and no lingering aftertaste. Over the course of 15 minutes of oxidization, the fruity flavor of the wine turn into a buttery sensation. More of a dessert wine than a wine with dinner
