A juicy, jammy wine. Generally enjoyed. Dark red-purple, medium legs. The red currant, strawberry jam and barnyard were almost explosive at first; only after hours in a decanter did subtler aromas eventually emerge, with some dried fruits, spices and herbs noticeable. Still, the balance is missing; both on the nose and palate, making us "like" the wine but not love it. The body and finish are medium; additional acidity could be useful.
