Pours a hazy, muddled red with a lazy white head that works it's way down. A juicy alcohol dominates the smell with a little yeast and coriander back it up. Thick sugar lets me know what kind of body I'm in for.

Coriander and citrus sit on the tongue while a bitter grape juice coats the mouth. Sugar isn't as prevalent in the taste as it was in the smell, but the grape juice is mudding everything up. Tannic bitterness at the end with a Punchy quality yeast bite. Oh yeah some more juice is there too.

Mouthfeel is a little slick with an overly thick body so it rushes into your stomach like water down a slide to create the ultimate stomach ache. Not too drinkable in my mind as you can tell. You can get a quality bottle of Pinot Noir (Hayman & Hill) and a single of wit for cheaper and enjoy them on their own for what they are.
