Dark purple/ruby in colour and massive black cherry aromas with pepper and spice undertones, dry but not like its sucking your mouth total dry which is a very good balance. The flavour matches the aroma of black cherry and vanilla and soda hints, subtle but there.

Its lacking something that I really can’t think what is or may be its the amount black cherry you smell and taste.

Its pretty good and at £10 its a decent red wine. It would go well with beef stew or a cheese board if you don’t want port or desert wine.
