Deep purple in color, this wine showed espresso, tobacco and dark red cherry on the nose. The mouth feel brought solid, firm but approachable tannins and intense vanilla notes from the heavy oak. The finish was medium in length but somewhat hot with noticeable alcohol burn from the 14.5% abv.
Drank with close friends at a wedding.

Fruity with a strong, spicy finish. Perhaps I waited too long to drink this one, but not my favorite.

Nice wine. Not a lot of nuance, but goes well at the start of an evening.
