Purple red, highly extracted but good clarity. Briar, black currant, eucalyptus and a touch of butterscotch in nose. Cherry, cherry cough syrup in mouth, later blackberry emerges, with tar, barrel, and fig with a mint aftertaste. Syrupy mouthfeel, moderate plus tannins. Tart with plum and pomegranate, medium bitterness, heavy chewy astringency in finish. Full-bodied and boldish, complex with some charms but little finesse. Drinkable enough

Balanced fruit, good paired with food or by itself, not overly jammy or spicy, love this wine and would buy again. Purchased at Bev mo
