Very young and vibrant. Bright garnet color. Nose is a mix of strawberry, red licorice and plum. Bright red licorice and strawberry flavors. Plum notes with cinnamon spice and rooted tannin structure. Surprisingly higher in alcohol at 14.5 but nice balance

Nov 23rd, 2017I loved this! The tannins were soft and it had lots of red fruit. But a little smoke too, just a hint.
