Tastes: Good value wine this one, year in year out. It is certainly a full, sweet almost cloying style without much acidity to give it backbone, however for those occasions thatcall for it, it really does the job. Sweet red fruit on the cherry and plum side, good mouthfeel and a fair length with a bit of heat on the finish.
