Medium ruby colour. The nose shows medium+ intensity aromas of ripe red cherry, strawberry, vanilla, coconut and cedar.
It is dry in the mouth with a medium+ nervy acidity. It has high coarse tannins and a medium+ alcohol. It has a medium+ body and medium+ intensity flavours. The finish is medium+.
It is a very good quality wine. Way too oaky, but very harmonious in the mouth with the acidity balancing the alcohol and generous flavour concentration. It is persistent as well.

K&L Wines of Italy Tasting (Peterson Automotive Museum LA): Very tight at this stage. Leather, wet leaves, some nuts/minerals. Great density, high acidity, but definitely needs time to unwind.
