Fruity red nose to it. Can smell some spices too. Maybe pepper? On first sips, lots of cherry and tannins. Has a pretty dark red to it which was nice. Had a bit of acidity to it. Quite dry, also had kinda a carbonated feel to it. Overall was alright. Not the worse not the best. Down the middle of the road.
