Deep Red almost purple with aromas of dark berry fruits and pepper spice. On the palate
blueberry and blackberry some spice with dry dusty tannins. Full-bodied with nice mouthfeel on a lingering finish ending with mineral tones. Nice value.

This was pretty tasty for 14.5%. Total insecurity and foolishness to post the Wine Spectator score on the back label. Come on :-)
