I normally don't like sweet anything but this was really fun. It starts moderately sweet, has structure and a bit of dryness at the end.

One of my favorites. Lush, delicious but not painfully sweet. South African wine.

Beautiful dark ruby/purple in color. Full bodied with thick legs. Right after opening the bottle, Funky fruity nose. I Put it in the freezer for 20 minutes and it changed dramatically with dark berries, dark chocolate, vanilla, grape juice and flowers.
Smooth on the palate with blackberries, plums, raisins, sweet cherries and spices.
Jammy and juicy and Not too sophisticated. Long sweet and tangy finish with a Funky after taste.
Nice wine for the sweet tooth person, that like their wine that way.
You can have it just by itself or cheeses and chocolates.
Needs to be cold when served. I dropped frozen grapes in the glasses to keep it chilled.
