  color: purple, fushia rim, tears stained, med intensity
  nose: shy, tempered berry fruit
  palate: dry, acid is med (), tannin is med and tea-like ... not "smooth" yet not rustic, curious!
  body is med alc is est 13.5 (13) finish is med +
  
  style note: Succulent, juicy blend of red and black grapes (think checkerboard) tickle the palate on this well-balanced old world wine touched with a hint of vanilla (older oak maturation) and fruit such as blackberries (blueberries? maybe later). Very smooth and even, a good match for lamb.
