Dark ruby color, dried blackberry aroma and flavor. Fruity jam flavor. Slight oakiness. Dry flavor with smoother aftertaste, but still noticeable.

Aroma wise - dark fruits. Black berry. Dry but still has sweetness. Smooth finish I guess ? Medium bodied.

very dark, very warm smelling but light
not a fan.
complex - leans more towards red fruit notes, dryer, full bodied
not getting earthiness, getting spicy (cloves, anise)

I wasn’t a huge fan of this red, as it was quite tart upon first sip. I’m getting undertones of blackberry and plum, and as it has been allowed to sit out for around 10-15 minutes I’m actually noticing an ease in harshness at the finish of the sip.

I really like this one. I am getting strong flavors of both raspberry and black current. Not super oaky but it is earthy. It feels thick and smooth as well.

Rich texture and full body - it’s really dry. I taste the dark fruits more than the red. It tastes like leather .. but I always say that
