The colour was moderate ruby red with slight purple tint. the bouquet showed sharp jammy berry fruit. The taste was smooth with vanilla tannins and quite strong berry fruit. This is a softer fruity style, with medium body.

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.
