Medium garnet color with some fine sediment. This wine was surprisingly still drinking well. Dark red fruit, black cherry, some pepper and earthy notes on the nose. Similar flavors on the palate with a slightly sweet dried red fruit aspect to it and some earthy, peppery flavors on the back end. Good acidity with minimal tannin. Certainly more of a food wine at this point but it drank much better than expected.

Ready to go right now. Not a terribly long/intense finish, but a nice representation just the same.
