Complex, non-sweet but good wine. Seems to improve with some open time - even better 2nd day. Buy at Liquor Boy.

Ripe plum and violet aromas carry a slight note of prune. A beefy palate shows hard tannins, but some oak contact adds elegance. Blackberry and blueberry are on a persistent finish. One suggested pairing is lamb.
Berry forward, would make a good stew wine.
