Color: reddish with slight orange hue. Moderately clear but not transparent.
On the Nose: mildly medicinal, earthy, bacon-fat, and mushrooms. Cola and herbal. Plums and cherries.
On the palate: Tannins with minerality. Red cherries and cranberries. Pickle undertones with raisin notes. It is still young. Will come to age in about 3-4 years.
Surprisingly happy with this. The price point of $19.00 is good for this wine. If bought, better to wait to open in a couple of years or decant for a few hours before consuming if kept at around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
