WSET Intermediate Course, Session 4 Tastings (Washington Wine Academy, Arlington, VA): Appearance: clear, medium intensity, ruby. Nose: clean, medium-plus intensity, dried blackcurrant, blueberry, nutmeg, mint, coffee/mocha, charred oak, vanilla. Palate: dry, low-medium acidity, medium-high tannin, medium-plus body, cassis, black cherry, some secondary characteristics but they're all muddled together, short length/finish. Conclusion: acceptable (not particularly interesting, but probably needed some decanting).
