Explosive nose of lavender, hint of graham cracker, blueberry, peppery. Mouthfeel is very balanced, lots of deep fruit flavor, very expressive, slight sweetness with a dry finish (if that makes sense). This is a really nice wine

Another review a year plus later. This particular bottle needed a full 24 hrs. open to come out and play. A day in getting lots of dark fruit on the nose a scent of sweetness (not sure what it is). Nice lingering tannins, on the palate get more dark fruit, maybe a bit of graphite

Very old world, get leather and some barnyard funk on the nose along with red fruit notes. Mouthfeel is a little tart; I'm getting more red cherries than any other fruits. Definitely get a leathery taste through to the finish, tannins are there and well balanced. This is a great change of pace from my usual new world wines.
