I was pleasantly surprised by this, sweet ripe red fruited, burnt toast, with a tomato paste savory thing. Silky

Intense ruby red color together with very nice aromas of fresh red fruits, eucalyptus, and oak on the nose. Medium-to-full-bodied and follows by very soft and good flavors of red cherry, mocha, roasted mushroom, and soft spices on the palate. Good & firm texture, very smooth & solid tannins, and nice long aftertaste at the end. Very soft, delicious, and very emotion wine. The reason to be very emotional because the wholesale price in Thailand is much more expensive than well-known Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classe with equal qulity. Very good and delicious but not good value. Like it but very sad.
