Out of magnum, ruby color in the bowl though much lighter on the edge. Drinking very nicely out of magnum and was a perfect pairing with Cioppino. Raspberries, cherries, and licorice in the nose with notes of herbalness and minerals. Black cherries, blackberries and raspberries in the flavor. Would never of guessed 16.5% alcohol, the wine was well balanced and medium bodied with a very smooth medium to long finish.

First bottle for NYE. Very light color, pretty and translucent. Nose of boozy raspberry and light smoke. Flavored of blackberry and plum. Sweet and easy drinking despite high alcohol.
