Inky black hue. Aromas of blueberry, cherry, earthy, eucalyptus, pepper, plum, tobacco, and vanilla. Big bodied, with robust tannins and high acidity. Big and bold, but still rounded and supple. The palate is replete with oak and dark fruits, but the high ABV may leave the mouth a little hot. Dangerously quaffable though. An excellent red that's worth drinking now or for years to come.

Very deep red. Enjoyed it a lot especially after some air.
