Viking's 'cheaper' wine, a mere $42.
Very dark red in the glass, almost black. A mixed nose - some sweet, simple fruit wafts up initially but is well matched with penetrating ripe fruit. Quite similar in the palate, at first easy to be fooled with the uncomplicated sweet fruits but some serious structure soon takes hold. Good, firm tannins drive length, dominating only a fraction (at this stage) and seemingly keep the ripeness in check. Wood treatment hides in the background. Looks like a very good wine making here.
