Item No. 110615

red wine style:

winemaker's notes:

The nose is chock-full of fresh blackberries, cherries and dark chocolate sprinkled with spices.

The palate is fresh and juicy, ripe red fruits mix with plums, blackcurrant, flowers and a twist of black pepper.

The tannins are fine with d'Arenberg's trademark earthiness helping keep this easy going wine in check.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%

critical acclaim:

"Opaque purple. High-pitched aromas of boysenberry, blueberry and violet. A juicy, velvet-textured fruit bomb, with jammy dark berry flavors enlivened by a hint of white pepper. Not the last word in complexity but offers a load of expressive black and blue fruit, finishing with ripe, smooth tannins and good length. "

International Wine Cellar

"Medium red-purple; there has been no attempt to make a wine of finesse or elegance; rather, it has been a successful attempt to extract every last drop of vinous blood and (to a lesser degree) tannins. Excellent bbq red, well priced."

Little disappointed in this vintage. I was a big fan of the 2008 vintage, this one not so much.

For the price this is a great table wine. Pairs well with most meals, probably not the bottle I am going to open if we are having a big steak, but is a very nice easy to drink. Have bought it a few times, it is catching on, the price keeps going up.

Style:Light & Fruity
