Powdery tannins, blackberry. It's obviously a big wine but not overly cloying or dense. Good structure, the tannins are significant but it's drinkable now, decent acidity to balance it. Sadly there is a bit of heat at the end.

Pours a deep garnet in the glass. Med+ int. developing aromas of red and black brambles (cooked and fresh), cured meat, game, balsamic, strawberry, smoke, tar, leather, oak-cedar, dry, hot earth, black cherry, finish with herbes de Provance. Dense, structured, and complex. The wine follows suit on the palate. Dry wine, med acid, med + tannin, full body, high alcohol, pronounced intensity on the palate, long finish. BLIC: 4pts: Outstanding, can drink now, has potential for further aging (10+yrs min).
