Clear, bright, garnet red with slight brown rim.

Clean, youthful but starting to evolved in secondary characters, medium intensity ripe plums, banana, overripe strawberries and red berry medley, lactic note, baked earth character, subtle oaking, possibly high usage of older barrels, complex cinnamon, paprika spices, meaty, leathery and hints of dry cured beef.

Dry, savory, lethery note follows through, black olives, medium bodied, moderate tannin, medium acidity, medium plus alcohol (13.5%), goof lenght and complexity.

Now until 2018.
