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:
Bright ruby colour. Cherry and plum aromas are complemented by a subtle tobacco quality. Mid-weight dark fruit flavours are given a firm edge by bitter licorice and herbal qualities, with supple tannins adding grip. Finishes on a tangy berry skin note, with good cut. This is far from heavy and would work well with lighter red meat dishes. Source: Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar
