The nose is a bit hot and brings ripe black raspberry and cedar aromatics. The palate is rich with vanilla, chocolate, dark fruit, anise and chewy tannins. The finish is a bit flat.

Rich in black fruits on the nose, a little jammy. Prunes, plums, black cherries, blackberry. Full bodied, sufficient acidity and tannins. A very respectable wine.
