Yum, yum! Big fleshy blueberries and blackberries roll across your tongue. You want more. I’ll top you up. Full-bodied and so supple. It’s ready to go with you are. Bring it on with the barbecue. Food matches: hamburgers, pasta alla carbonara, sausage pizza.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Jason Solanki reviewed this wine as follows:

Red fruits, milk chocolate, earthy, and light oak aromas. Dried cherry, fruit-forward, and some cocoa on the palate. Light to medium-bodied. Lacking a little oak for my palate, but otherwise good structure and well made. Having this tonight with curried chicken made over charcoal.
Crispy bacon, coffee gelato, and chocolate covered cherry aromas follow through on a silky entry to a fruity medium-to-full body with lots of jammy berry fruit and a smooth, zesty cocoa-dusted citrus finish. Very tasty with a charming meaty complexity. World Wine Championship Award: Gold Medal. Exceptional. Score: 91 Source: Tastings.com
