The colour was medium slightly purple red, and there was quite a lot of sediment. there was a strong spicy jammy berry fruit bouquet, with light tannins. The taste showed strong berry fruit and spice, and a medium woody finish. This wine had medium body, and was a fruity style, lacking in tannin and savoury balance (Sylvia is also known as Zweigelt).

Note 1: I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot of this particular wine, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these wines, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
