Smell: Definitely plum and generally fruitiness. Very slight earthy smell. Taste: Very refreshing. A little bit of dryness to it. A little bit sweet. Medium length for after taste. No pucker. Overall: Good wine. I was quite surprised with how well this wine aged after just over a year. It had mellowed a little bit more than I expected and was incredibly smooth (possibly due to the unexpectedly hot summer we had). I would say this wine was close to its best and now would be an excellent time to open one if you happen to have one.    (hide)
