Transparent ruby garnet in the glass. Initially shy nose opens up to meaty menthol and black fruit. Medium acidity is held in check. Medium full mouthfeel. Dark toast and blackberries on the palate. Medium tannins that don't attack you on entry. A rare finesse from this werewolf of a grape. Should handle red meat just fine.

What a delightful surprise. I expected rustic and rough, but was met with polish and restraint. Concentrated, sleek, balanced. 13.9%abv of juicy goodness. This is definitely something I want to have around.
