Jammy flavors of plums and blueberries dominate the core. Medium soft tannin rounded out by red licorice, milk chocolate and black pepper.

Lots of prune and chocolate and super smooth. Wish we had finished it the first night because it did not do so well day 2.

Light molasses and apple nose, slight leather too. Bright on the tongue, earthy exit. Ok wine. Would probably do better with food.
