I was really interested in this wine considering the good price and was positively surprised. It is very fruity in the nose, but in the mouth it has combination of fruit with good pleasant tannins and surprisingly longer finish. I realized I was drinking it very fast as it somehow washed down very pleasantly, which for me is very good sign for this style of wine
