Medium red to orange in color, showing age fairly early in my opinion. Red cherry, eucalyptus, and forest floor on the nose. Medium plus acidity--almost high. 14.5 ABV. Strong tart red cherry forward on the palate. Anise, roses, and some tertiary flavors of dried leaves emerging. Tannins are firm. Young, sorry to wake you up bro.

Distinctive VA notes. Very young that still has big tannins. Lovely dried red fruit character.

Elegant yet lively fruit with unique earth notes.

Lovely aromatics and finesse. Dark fruits, with high toned earth and floral notes, hibiscus/mint tea on the finish. A compelling case for elevage in barrique for evolving wine without imparting overt oak flavors.

Tannic beast, not my cup of tea.
Maybe age will do wonders.
