Red violet glass with translucent red violet rim. On the light to medium nose, blackberry, cherry, cinnamon, clove, black pepper and a whiff of licorice. On the palate, the cherry leads but soon overtaken by a mouthful of small to medium tannins. Finishes dry due to the tannic pull with ending of cinnamon and black pepper. Decant to get the nose aromas and serve with rich food to enjoy acidic dryness. Maybe better in a few years as tannins age. Very good value at $16.22 USD.
