The nose has a chocolate, cherry, tarty to it. Has a dark red color to it. Full bodied. On first sip, I get tart like a cherry, some black currants, and dark chocolate. Little to no tannins on it. Has a weird aftertaste that lingers around, kind of like dark chocolate. Can't fault it but maybe not my cup of tea.
