The colour was medium ruby red, with moderate legs. The bouquet had medium sweet fruit, and light spice. There was dark cherry, light floral and spice, and quite smooth oak. This wine had medium body, and well integrated fruit and wood flavours.

Note 1 I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these wines as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
