Cafe Mangal Cab dinner. Too old but still some interest.

Sherry brown color but a big clean nose of strawberry, figs, raisin liqueur. Starts great but gets astringent and drying on the finish. Fortunately, there is good acidity throughout. This certainly looked bad but was pretty intact with a killer nose.
