Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe black fruits with citrus notes. On the palate this wine is jammy with cherry and blackberry flavors, cacao and orange citrus zest. Soft tannins, not overly acidic, medium finish ending with spice notes. Drink now, it’s losing is luster!

Jammy on the nose and tongue. Medium bodied wine. Very nice fruity wine with a smooth finish.

Hedonists need only apply. This is jammy and jammed packed with berry flavors and spice. Goes down WAY too easy :-)

Met the winemaker, had one more bottle left. Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe black fruits with citrus notes. On the palate this wine is jammy with cherry and blackberry flavors, cacao and orange citrus zest. Soft tannins, not overly acidic, medium finish ending with spice notes. Aged well!

Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe black fruits with citrus notes. On the palate this wine is jammy with cherry and blackberry flavors, cacao and orange candy zest. Soft tannins, bordering on sweet and not overly acidic, the wine finishes medium. Drinking well.

The tannins have really softened from a couple of years ago but the fruit is still excellent.
