The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, raspberry, cherry and forest floor. It tastes like strawberry, blackberry, red currant, raspberry, cherry, mushroom, black pepper and violet. The body is light/medium. The wine has round texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Barely discernible strawberry banana scents. Not very fruity and obviously past prime on the palate, acidic at the start with an astringent backend, but little pizzazz in between. Disappointing.

I didn't particularly like the nose on this from the start. The vanilla and banana became slightly less sickly over time but this was barely any better two days later. By then it was dominated by confected fruits aromas - boiled sweets as my wife pointed out. The palate is much better though with light strawberry flavours and silky tannins. A perfectly acceptable summer drinker but I'm not rushing out to stock up.

Light bright strawberry fruit, reasonably plush up front, lacking in the middle and finish. Does what one expects and decent as an inconsequential quaffer. Pleasant. **1/2

This wine is Ruby colored. The bouquet smells of raspberry, strawberry, forest floor and menthol. On the palette, big violet and oakiness, along with blueberry and petrol notes. Light body and a short finish. An average table wine.

Light bodied with simple red fruit and a bit of spicy character. Became more rounded over the course of a few hours. Better than expected.

Exactly as i expected, but pricey for this for sure...other comments are similar to mine, although i would not dramatize the experience as much as one of the original reviews does...this is light, fruity and one dimensionally simple. Some bubble gum and cherry on nose and hints of both on palate, although mainly cherry fruit driven. No significant tannin/acid - light bodied. Great just by itself or with light food...this would be a push over with significant culinary competition.

Pale cimson, pink tinge, limpid. On the nose, strawberry and sweet spice. The palate prounouced fruit, principally strawberry and redcurrant, some sweet spice - cinnamon, clove and a note of sweet undergrowth as againt decaying forrest floor. Mild tannins but a wine of good grip, plenty of acidity but in no way excessive. A very harmonious and relatively complex wine with a long, dry finish.

Light and fruity on the nose and palate, but an unpleasant sourness on the finish. Didn't finish it.
