Clear, brick. A complex nose as it opened: sweet tarts & cotton candy giving way to red fruit, spice (something distinctive I couldn't quit identify), with some mushroom and bramble. Hard tannins at first, but they soften; unfortunately the palate doesn't stand up to the nose. Medium bodied, mainly tart red fruit with a bit of spice and a medium finish. A bit simpler than expected, I expected a bit more.
