Dark ruby hue, near opaque. Aromas of blackberry, chocolate, leather, plum, and tar. Full-bodied, with robust (yet rounded) tannins and medium acidity. Strong, albeit smooth, finish of black fruit, earthy, and pepper. Complex yet accessible. Opens up over time, and well worth the wait.

Feb 29th, 2020Unusual, slightly unpleasant on the nose, but peppery, lacking the finish and tannins I was looking for.
