The colour was medium bright ruby red, with a clear edge. The bouquet was sharp cherry fruit, with some light vanilla wood. The wine showed medium smooth strong cherry fruit flavours, with light earthy mushroom and wood. It had quite strong fruit with good dry crisp balance.
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.
