Rich garnet, somewhat inky. Mint and floral notes on the very shy nose. Soft on the palate, with low acids a drawback. Flavors of pepper and blackberry. Moderately grippy tannins in the finish. Not much fruit, low acidity, an OK but not great wine.

Huge fruit bomb, overpowering for anything except the heaviest bbq sauce. Tons of alcohol taste.
