Pale garnet colour, and quite translucent. Enticing and intense nose of bright red cherries and juicy red plums, with forest floor and nose-tingling spices supporting the fruit. The palate is delightfully fresh and juicy, with a good amount of acid supporting the fruit. There's a complementary savoury element on the palate as well. Tannins are fine and barely noticeable (more on the back palate) and the wine has a slightly slippery mouthfeel. Medium length.
Excellent wine, and my first from a six pack. I look forward to watching its evolution.
Cheers

Wine, women and song. Ideally, you can experience all three at once.
