Clear amethyst purple in the glass. Dark fruit and patent leather on the nose and palate (with some vanilla bean). Very fruit forward for an Old World wine. Medium low tannins. Dark medium long finish. Not sure that the used Pappy Van Winkle barrels have much discernible effect. I'm getting oak (American), but nothing particularly special. Solid.

Crowdpleaser and perfect match to pot roast. Ripe and juicy spiced sour cherry and raspberry framboise. Love it.
