Quite pretty though a little hollow and somewhat thin. Not bad for now.

Lots of cherry. Leather/earthy finish. Lighter red. Very enjoyable.

Ripe raspberries, cherry cola, lavender and thyme. Excellently balanced wine.

Lots of (concentrated) red fruit, little chocolate and spice (laurel) giving it complexity. Quite some tannins and closed; needs air before drinking.

Aromatic nose of roses, violets and herbs. Like sticking your nose into a pile of cut flowers steeped in alcohol. Flavors of tobacco, leather and wood dominate. A dry wine that has brooding complexity. Some might not like that much barrel flavor.
