Very tasty! Surprisingly a touch of smoked meat on the nose. Great berry flavors but a little too hot in body. Juicy blackberries, black cherries, lots of clove & cinnamon spice notes.

Delicious. There seems to be a spark of "brightness" that works very well with food or without. This would be a winner at parties.

Nose is dusty but tight (didn’t decant). Maybe some poop? Old poop. Weeks old, and non-offensive. It tastes very smooth, some spice, some dark fruit – blueberries? The wine is fragrant in a perfume-y way. Watch out for the 15% alcohol, though. Sneaks up on you.

This wine has a very deep ruby red color and thick, voluptuous legs. Delicate but nice aromas of raspberry and some plum. Very nice attack with a soapy feel, extremely full body with pleasant acidity and soft tannins on the finish. A hint of minerality appears long into the finish. Great structure.

Flowers and asian spice on the nose. Blackberry jam and more peppery asian spice on the palate. Luscious silky tannins with a nice balance of acidity. I like it!

First wine that I have had that I now know what a fruit bomb is! This is it! Fruit and Candy flavors on the mouth and nose. Coats the pallet very nicely and also a very nice smooth finish that lasts. A good minute passed and still tasted it. Very Enjoyable and a very nice price.
