Med body, starting to show its age with color slightly fading towards brownish ruby esp on the rim, fruit still strong, med-high acidity, fairly alcoholic, drink now and another couple years perhaps

Balanced, integrated, some citrus, some mineral, enough complexity -- not too much to overrule, enough to leave an impression. Great value and fun wine!

dark purple color, black current & alcoholic, tannic mouth filling spicy mild bitter dark fruit palate, maturing can be less aggressive & balanced - one more year to settle can do it better

Red, plum ans dark fruit nose, fruit and bit licorice palate, still tannic after 2 hours open, improving and slowly getting more character, give it one more year before u open however quite enjoyable now if u keep open for like 4-5 hours
