Medium body. Dark cherry with a touch of cassis flavor. A little bit of tar and vanilla as well. Twizzler. The fruit if fairly restrained. Medium tannins. Simple. Drink now.

I've had this more than a year ago and it had much more fruit - lots of plum and chocolate. The fruit seems to be fading now leaving leather and a slight bitter chocolate taste. Still enjoyable but probably fading.

decanted for 2 hours before serving; more expressive in Burgundy glass; black fruits, vanilla, and some Barbera-like candy scent; smooth tannin; high in acidity with noticeable spiciness; should pair with well with Italian foods; a simple but great food wine
