How this wine feels

The ripe fruit gives a generous first impression, then fine tannins provide a little grip. It has more weight than a light red, but the texture is rounded rather than rugged. Vanilla and spice linger behind the dark fruit.

The sliders show how strongly each characteristic comes through. Higher does not mean better.
