Cherry red, very good clarity. Cherry, red currant aromas, light cherry flavor. Slight seed bitterness in aftertaste. After an hour, wintergreen and a mild skin astringency emerge in the aftertaste. Just enough acidity. Those who dislike tannins should decant a couple of hours before serving

Aug 11th, 2022Deep Bing cherry red in color. Butter and red fruit in nose. Cherry flavor and black currants with great length in mouth, also a hint of phenol. Slight astringency on front of mouth in finish with citrus flavor. Big fruit forward wine, with no bitter seed tannins whatsoever
