The label on this wine says it all, I mean come on, it has fire on it. The color you'll find here is very dark purple-reddish. The nose alone was pretty spicy and blocked out some of the fruitier components that were trying to come out. What really got me however was the taste. This wine is very spicy and had a lot of heat in terms of alcohol content. Despite this it still ended up being pretty flabby and dull near the end, and as such I wasn't really head over heels for it.
