Brambly blackberry with oak undertones. Taste is fruit forward with dark fruits, spice and oak. After 2 hours of being open the wine was all about the oak and less about the fruit. That fact was disappointing.

Rich brambly blackberry nose, showing some spice. In the mouth, baking spice, berries, a little oak, and firm tannins. This is wine that can age well. Balance and finish are both good.

Underbrush and dark fruit, with a slight raisiny quality. Quite good and somewhat restrained.

When first opened, it was very spicy. Tasted of chili and chocolate. After a few hours, it mellowed and was more drinkable.
