Interesting blend. An inky purple color in the glass to the rim, the aroma and initial taste is rich plum (classic cabernet). Through the mid-palate, the wine softens and adds strong mocha flavors. It then finishes with a little bit of spice and moderate tannins. The acidity seems low, so not sure how well it might pair with many meals. It can definitely be enjoyed on its own, though.
I quite enjoyed it, and may pick up some more to enjoy as a weekday drinker for a couple more years
