Still youthful in the glass. Nose is blackberry with hints of leather and sandalwood. Good fruit remains, structure is firm through the acids and fairly soft tannins that show on the finish. Lovely with a rib steak.

Deep purple appearance. Ripe, earthy aromas of stewed cherries, black currants, plums, cocoa, and a touch of pastille. Mid-bodied, with stonefruit, red and black fruit flavors, a streak of iron minerality, and a decent finish. On the simple side but enjoyable.

Suprisingly good, maybe the cellar time?

Just ok wine, even for a daily drinker.
Got better after some time open (next day), but still not great.
