Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Youthful ruby in the glass with complex notes of cherry, raspberry, plum and earth. Dry and medium bodied, the palate has expressive red-fruit notes, nice structure and balance. The finish leans to the long side and is a real beauty. My note: Tart cherry pie with summer-fresh field strawberries. Medium-bodied and mouth-watering and beautiful. Bring it on a picnic, even if you are alone. Food matches: lamb.
