Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Similar colour to Georgia's; a firmer structure, resting on slightly more evident tannins, and the fruit more towards black cherry and blackberry; a long, balanced finish.
