An interesting wine for a poor vintage Slightly aggressive in tannins with dark fruit and hints of forest floor and leather Good acidity Slightly on the high side with alcohol Long finish

Deep garnet color and full bodied. Nice red berry fruit with earth and leather notes. Smooth peppery finish with strong tannins. Needs to be allowed to breath after opening and could easily be left to age for a couple of years to allow the tannins to soften and the wine develop.
