Nice violet ruby color. Complex aromatics of flowers, berries (cherry and blackberry), tobacco and smokey, dark chocolate flavors. Very good value for the dollar. My only complaint is that the wine does not have a long tail.

Tasting. Black fruit and meaty spice on nose. Powerful fruit on palate, not much nuance but lots of easy pleasure. Give this a few more years to balance a little better, it has the acidity to last a few years.
