I don’t like reds usually, but I’m a fan of this one! Super fruity, Jolly Rancher vibes from this.

Meh. I was optimistic from the fruity and rich nose. But on the palate it tasted rather flat and acidic, with little complexity and an overly effervescent texture. Perhaps a bad bottle, given all of the other positive reviews?
