Super dark, inky, red/violet in color. Nose is savory, almost smokey, with dark berry fruit and soft spice. Palate is amazingly deep but not over extracted, has some qualities reminiscent of Rhone wine of the same grape, animal skin, roasted meats, crushed herbs, charcoal, and dark fruits. Acid is well integrated as are the tannins.
