Ruby red with a slight hint of purple. Aromas of violets, cherries, raspberries, chocolate, and fine black table pepper. It’s a nice nose but in the mouth it’s a little flat. Medium bodied, soft tannin, a strangely all-over-the-place acidity, and it all just seems a bit unbalanced. There’s a bit of leather on the palate to keep things interesting but it’s mostly sticky red fruit without the gusto to back it up. And everything fades quickly on the flat finish.
