90 Points

Friday, April 16, 2021 - -- decanted 1.5 hours before initial taste --
-- tasted non-blind over a couple hours --

NOSE: dark; brooding; mix of olive and tar; fruits come across as ripe/baked/dark --- dark raspberry dominates; a touch floral.

BODY: medium-full bodied; violet-garnet color of great depth.

TASTE: "dark"; smoky; and dark-fruited; hint of olive; gentle, medium-fine tannins; adequate acidity; alc. is a touch noticeable. Fully primary, and a bit clumsy, at the moment. Best to Hold.

50, 5, 12, 16, 7 = 90
