Very impressive. Smooth and peppery at the same time. I've got a second bottle. Darryl you will want to try!

This was really confusing for us especially because of the last tasting note on here and this does not seem like a Bordeaux blend of Merlot, CS and CF. Seems more like an Italian varietal.

Deep ruby core with garnet edges. Very interesting, glue to start on the nose then a little dusty with cherries and greenery. High acidity and moderate tannins (7/10). Lots of red cherries, minerality and slight metallic elements. Earthy on the backend. Very dry medium finish. Drink till 2020.

Smell of oak. Slight metal. Astringent. Dark sour cherries. Dark purple ruby hue. Taste of licorice. Acidic bite. Hint of vanilla.
