Blackberry and spice notes. Tannins were a bit dry and scratchy.

Yummy! Chocolate and cinnamon on the nose and palate. Dry. Medium-full bodied. Decent finish.

Dark cherry with a subtle bell pepper nose. High in tannins, medium acid. Could be aged.

Missing the great flavor. A bit watered down, did improve with being opened a few hours.

Needed time to breathe. But a lovely dry red after about 30 mins.
