Deep ruby color; plumb, cherries, vanilla and a hint of something herbaceous on the nose; a little hot, moderate to low acidity, smooth tannins, and a long finish; Tastes like sour cherries, black pepper, and bell pepper. Not my favorite, but not bad. Better with food. It was great with a good burger. It improved tremendously after airating overnight.

Delicious red especially after it opens up. Well balanced without a lot of tannin.
