Lots of tannins in this wine. Tastes of cherries and nutmeg. Very smokey and oak notes. Needs time to breathe to open the flavours.

Dry and soft. It's deceptively bold though. There's a soft smoky note on the back.

This wine definitely has to breathe longer than usual to tame down the tannins

Definitely a favorite. Full body, with just the right balance of fruit, oak and spice.

A decent wine for $16.99. Enjoyed it better at room temp versus the Ravi. A medium body, not too heavy or acidic. Would try again.
