Mahogany rim with a faint clear edge progressing to deep opaque garnet purple at the bowl. A rich cassis nose with a whiff of meat and blueberries. Medium weight with some tannin still present, but lovely rounded tannins. Red fruit replay in the mid palate with a end note of ? Mushrooms? Very slight tartness just before the end but red fruits round out the curtain call. 20 second length.
