Rather lean, with high acidity, the wine has red currant fruits, a taut texture and a light spice character.

Alicante Bouschet gives a definite farmyard character to this wine. It also offers juicy berry fruits and balanced acidity. The two characteristics put the wine firmly on a food friendly side.

Dark cherry aromas with faint meaty accents open this light red. Juicy, but not jammy, the red fruit really takes over on the palate. Straightforward flavors and a clean even finish make this a commendable quaff.

A lightweight, rather rustic wine that has acidity, flavors of beetroot and a meaty aftertaste.

Some good red and dark blackberry fruits emerge from concentrated tannins and a firm structure. This wine is made for aging, the juicy Alicante Bouschet character well integrated into the fine texture.

Herb and spice aromas are followed by a rich, black-fruited, now mature wine. Concentrated, the soft dusty tannins are well rounded to give a mellifluous, smooth texture, with just a hint of black plums and acidity.

Rose petals and crushed, fresh cranberries with strong heat from the alcohol are present on the nose. But upon tasting, the only thing present is some very light minerality. This wine is like a firework that misfires, so much anticipation without all of the pizazz. Pair with asian and spicy foods.
