Color is starting to brown, very clear. Still has young tannins, with some tart cherry flavors. The finish has a wonderful mouth feel that dries out your pallet and reminds you of how powerful this wine is. Really enjoyable.

Rim of glass flicking with orange, nose is muted citrus peels, dried plums, medicinal cherry, with a sprinkle of dried herbs. Palate muddy compost over dried cherries and stewed prunes, tannin show slight grip, alcohol burst over at 14.5.

Nose is woody with spice and pepper. First taste is bright and acidic which mellows as the wine opens up. Dried prune on the flavor, strong white pepper and some black pepper, with gentle tannins. Going to be great with my pasta. Finish is medium long.

Very deep cherry, tones of minerality and earthiness. Bottle is still young. Needs more time to mellow out and age, was a mistake to open up. Way too acidic to drink now.
