Medium(+) ruby, relatively fast-moving legs, 12.5%abv. Medium(-) developing aromas of cherries, dense wood, ash, aromas are not promounced at all. Dry, medium(+) acidity, medium(-)-medium tannins, medium(-) body and ditto alcohol. Medium(-)-medium flavours of cherries, pepper, red berries, and faint chocolate notes. Slightly puckering tannins, a bit thin. Medium-good length with rather harsh finish, fruit too watery to balance acidity.j

Yep, flat and thin is about right...nose is very light with some pepper. Palate is a little sharp with initial hit of some acid and watery fruit - barely. Some "spice" notes (black pepper?) Not much else to say, around 15$ @ MLCC - skip it.
