Odor is reminiscent of eucalyptus and the taste is lighter than anticipated. Jury is still out, but definitely on the too sweet side to pair with food.

Refreshing but overly sweet for me. Also, lacked complexity. Not bad for a party.

Fantastic wine. Easy to drink for a casual or fine dining. Pairs well with lamb and steak.

Semi transparent maroon color. Sweet cherry nose with a hint of spice. Cherry with no tannins and low acidity. Sugar finish, but not too sweet. Very easy to drink.
