  Nice deep red color. The nose is tinny, with muted wood, strawberry, kind of muted flavors. On the palate it shows a medium acidity with pure cherry flavors, some of the strawberry notes, and very little tannin. Nice and simple with no flaws. Good roasted chicken wine, or even a nice with grilled veggies.

  Of the three bottles we opened from the same producer last night, I had thought that this would have been a jewel. Dark maroonish color that showed a slightly reserved nose of chocolate, black current, cinnamon and eucalyptus. That is what got me, the "reserved" part. Although I enjoyed the wine, and thought that it had both solid acidity and good structure, representing the region well, it didn't wow me. Although given a bit of time to open, the fruit did show a bit more on the palate, yet I still felt it lacked a bit of personality. 3/5
