Did not show well, for the $ I would expected more depth and complexity. Nose was backwards from the palate, maybe another year or two because it's a 2013. Soft and lithe red berries, good tannin but lacked snap and energy.

Medium garnet in color. Medium+ aromatic intensity with developing aromas of black cherry, stewed black plum, licorice, wet stone and baking spice. Dry, medium+ intensity of flavor, medium body, medium alcohol, medium+ tannin, medium acidity, medium+ finish. Excellent quality wine, likely suitable for slightly further aging.
