  Deep ruby color with a thin ruby, slightly purple rim.
  The nose is intense and quite youthful with aromas of blackberry, plum and some raspberry, then white pepper and some mint.
  
  The palate is dry, with lowish acidity, full body and a medium-minus to medium level of very soft, ripe tannins. High but pretty well integrated alcohol. Intense flavours of blackberry, plum and some cherry with the white pepper note spicing up the finish.
  Very soft and full, and balanced, possibly erring a bit on the side of high alcohol, with a long finish.
  
  Still young and will give more complexity with years to come.
  
  Improving 3-5 years.
  
  Excellent.
