Tasting notes
Good bright, dark red. Subdued but ripe aromas of red plum, cherry and mocha lifted by a floral element. Supple, sweet red fruit flavors show moderate verve and nuance. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins and a tart quality from a hint of greenness and some unabsorbed acidity. Could use more fruit interest and zip.
