"Just mid ruby. Open-knit, super-approachable nose of cinnamon bark and marasca cherry. Lots of supple, ripe and almost rich fruit, quiet the charmer! The firm tannins are effortlessly absorbed by the concentrated fruit. Long, perhaps not the most complex but definitely hedonistic. Already giving lots of pleasure. (WS) 14%"
