Garnet coloration. Good amount of translucency. On the nose, cherry, strawberry, minerals and hints of tar, leather and florals-roses. On the palate, cherry, cranberry, minerals, and a long finish with hints of light strawberry and floras- some rose perhaps. Tannins strong out of the bottle. Will need to decant for a while and revisit. Wonderful first impression. After several hours decanting, the palate evolved to include strawberry, spice and pepper.
