Seems higher than 13.3% alcohol. Complex aromas of earth, tar, dark red fruits and cranberries. On the palate, there is beetroot, strawberry, cranberry, earth and some cedar on the palate. Medium-bodied with smooth, integrated tannins, and a short finish. Tasted Jan/2013.

Light garnet in colour with medium to medium+ intense nose.
For under $21 it’s worth to try it.
Positives: This wine shows light pine, fallen leaves, champagne mushrooms, sour cherry, strawberry and lots of pomegranate. Medium minus body and tannins with good acidity a fairly long length.
Negatives: None
Drink now on its own, but pairs better with food such as peppercorn tuna.
