Lightly extracted ruby red in color, very good clarity. Briar, phenol and cherry fruit leather notes in nose. Tutti frutti and anise flavors, some seed and skin tannins in finish. Good acidity, tasty and complex from opening. Still benefits from decanting. Later, cherry and raspberry flavors emerge, white pepper flavor in finish. Astringency builds as well.
