It possesses very ripe dark fruits, a lot of alcohol and spices. This wine isn't balanced with a lot of bitterness at the end of the middle part. The alcohol also leads to a sweet part that is not countered by the acidity.

Popped and poured. Explosive aromas upon opening. The flavor profile was that of cold climate/northern rhone syrah. This showed best right after opening, and became less expressive over the course of a few hours. Wish I'd bought more.

Two bottles consumed at different times. One showed very very well, with good energy and something of a Northern Rhone flavor profile. The second bottle was more muted, good but uninteresting. 92 and 88 points respectively

Earthy with tobacco notes. Enjoyable after it loosens up. Not awesome at this stage of its lifecycle.
