WineO Mark Review

This wine has a deep ruby color on the glass. It has a complex aroma filled with black fruits such as black cherries, blueberries, blackberries, and plums followed by notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and toasted oak.

On the palate, this wine is medium to full-bodied with a flavorful and juicy texture and firm and chalky tannins. It has an intense fruity touch which is full of cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries with hints of vanilla, leather, oak, and spices.
