Medium high tannins, not very grippy. A bit of a rubberiness, red fruity, not a lot of oak, medium-high alcohol, medium-high acidity, a bit of funk.

Enjoyed this one. Fruits up front with hints of wood. Read the back and aged in tanks. Nice lighter style red with nice dry tannins. All the things I like. Had 2018 in March of 2021. Would buy again.
