Medium ruby colored with high viscosity (13.9% ABV) and very slight staining. The nose gives me aromas of dark red fruit- raspberry, black cherry, red plum, star anise, evergreen, toasty oak and baking spices. The palate is dry with medium acidity and medium tannins. A relatively full body is rich with ripe dark red fruits long with blackberry and a definitive charcoal note. I also get some baking spice and a herbal green note. The finish is short to medium in length. This is a nicely balanced wine that has acidity and tannins tipping each other whilst the fruit takes center stage. It gets 90 points from me and for $36- 4 stars. Since this is an NV wine I would drink within 5 years of purchase.

Was pleasantly surprised how good this bottle was. Bought it 4 years ago and didn’t expect it to age this well. It was smooth and had a nice dry finish. Not powerful but good flavor. Nice. Drink now if you have one.
