Over-extracted and over-oaked. It isn't objectively bad but it leaves me wondering, why?

Deep ruby coloration. On the nose earth, cherry cola and strawberry jam. On the palate cherry, strawberry, a bit of tobacco and herbs. A nice oaky finish. Lighter body and mouthfeel and powerful tannins. 2012 vintage. 2013, very similar.
