This was an unknown wine for me, never read any reviews or anything. Had this for dessert with cakes and ice cream.

Brick red, pretty light color. Smell of strawberry/soil, barely any alcohol at all.
Very smooth mouth feel. Strawberries, dried fruit, a little wood, spice. Not too sweet.

I kinda wish it felt a little "bigger", but it was very enjoyable. Wonderful with dessert.

Once again, I'm not very comfortable scoring wines due to my lack of experience... but I think I'll go 91/100 on this.
