Showing vibrant aromas and flavors of black currants, anise, tar and potpourri, this opaque crimson/ruby wine takes on a tannic, muscular profile. Full-bodied, freshly acidic and with nicely integrated alcohol (listed as 14.5%), it stays solid in the middle and closes with medium length. This is a well-made wine which represents good value. A couple of years in the cellar will likely buff some of its rough edges. Drink 2017-2027.
