Needs a bit of aging to soften the tannins. Love the color and lots of fruit.

This was a juice bomb, fruit forward, but raw tannins. I wanted to try a young vintage but this needs a great deal of time in ideal aging conditions to soften tannins. My rating reflects the young vintage, not the quality of the wine!

Not my jam. At all. Unbalanced, weirdly astringent, and just not enjoyable.

Cranberry and orange. Sour fruit and tannin. Not enormously enjoyable. Probably better with age. Or possible a bit warmer and more air.
