Stupendous at this price point; big, fruity nose, clean in the mouth, great tannins, super structured and ready to age, dry but not at all puckering, drinkable as heck; good fruit, but the star here for me was the spice, good cacao, cumin, coriander, with bootstrap molasses holding it all down. Interesting, atypical for the region, and definitely a buy-again for me.
