Clean, med red cherry, cranberry, candied raspberry, plum, violets, earth. All stainless. Dry, consistent w/ the nose. Med (+) acidity, w/ only med tannins and med alcohol (12.5%). Still, it seems nicely balanced, w/ medium body & med to med+ flavor intensity & length. Very food-friendly & a great value in the $10-$13 range.
