Nose: Light and oaky, not a lot of fruitiness. Maybe a bit smokey?
Taste: The berries come out, unlike in the nose. Dark red berries, but not sweet. Still tastes a little smokey.
Finish: Some tannins, but mostly just a bit sour at the end.
What we say: S - 'Smells like red wine that you cook with beef - there might be a little beef in there, in fact.' 'Might be good cooking wine for beef?' V - 'It almost has a hint of forest fire...' S - 'I still think this would go well with beef.' 'It's not bad, nothing spectacular, but decent - slightly about average.' V - 'Yeah, it isn't bad, but not great.'
What they say: Wild berry, chocolate, mocha notes and a waft of vanilla on the nose. On the palate a burst of ripe fruit complimented with delicate oak spice flavours. Full bodies with firm yet approachable tannins.
Rating: 5.5 (S - 6; V - 5)
Cost: £8.99
