First day: not decanted, just popped and poured. Not much on the nose, just some alcohol. In the mouth some real sweet red fruit. The second day there was much more to enjoy: a vibrant ruby colour, a fruity nose, on the palate lots of ripe sweet red fruit with some freshness, it made me think of strawberries with mint. Lovely! Medium bodied. Quit a long fruity aftertaste. I'm glad I have have some more of these!

Monique,
I've heard great things about this wine and if not mistaken, in a recent Malvedos vertical, it was one of the favorites of the tasting.![[cheers.gif]](./images/smilies/cheers.gif "Toast")
