Violets and raspberries on the nose, cherries, pomegranate and a hint of pepper and other spices on the palate, nice acid/tannin balance and a hint of vanilla on a medium-long finish. More balanced and enjoyable on day #2 (stored in fridge with a shot of inert gas). Two of us tried a "Wine Awakenings" kit to help agree on flavors and aromas.

An interesting wine that very little of is made due to the scarcity of the grape. The initial nose was a bit bell peppery and herbal, however with some time in the glass this changed into black pepper, cassis, blackcurrant, and plum. A little heavy and ripe across the palate. Interesting, but not great.
