Concentrated, purple-red color, viscous and lots of staining tears; on the nose it is youthful, both red and dark fruit, red dominates, and it lacks secondary aromas; high alcohol (says 14, but is likely more), high acid, tannic, and the fruits are confirmed on the palate. Unfortunately it is unbalanced and dominated by alcohol and tannin on the finish. More proof that simpler B'ds even at this price just don't fly. There is no such thing as a Bargain Bordeaux.
