Great dry red wine from a region known for its dessert wine. Firm tannins with ripe dark fruits; characteristic of wine from hotter region. It has quite a lot of heat and spice. It has subtle earthy, leathery, and smoky notes behind all of those fruits and spices. It's quite ready to drink in 2016 but I'd wait another year or two. It's a great wine for the price.
