Upgrading your yeast

Light tannins and an easy-drinking style like this is exactly what Mangrove Jack's CR51 was built for — a strain bred specifically for light, fruity reds meant for early drinking. If your fermenting spot runs cold over winter (an unheated garage or utility room, often under 15°C), Lalvin EC-1118 is the more reliable choice.
