Deep Ruby color, brown hues, aromas of ripe berry fruits with strong herb spice and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of ripe plum with earthy herb pepper spice. Firm chewy tannins, medium(-) length ending with fruit and wet earthy character. Past it’s prime, Drink now!

Rating is for estate wine red blend. Dark berry, peppery, decently balanced lighter tannins, has a little malbec bitterness. Fine for drinking but wouldn’t seek out again.

I didn’t like it. But I can’t remember why. I think I felt like it was trying too hard and couldn’t decide what it was trying to be. I wouldn’t bother again.
