Garnet color. Mature fruit nose with some minor vinegar notes. Black cherry and earth. Tart acidity. Earthy finish with some depth. A bit maderized. 14.5% alcohol.

Good regional typicity, with dark berry fruit, herbs and spice. Yet, soemhow, I found this wine just a bit underwhelming. The fruit lacked a bit of brightness and the complexity was just ok. Certainly not a bad wine, actually quite good, but I had hoped for a bit more...something....

Medium ruby with purple tinge. Nose of black cherry, raspberry, broken stones and spices. Palate of ripe cherry and peppery spice, with med+ tannin and med acidity. Needed time to open up (2 hour decant). Got even better as the night went on, developing a longer and longer finish to the fruit and spice.
