The wine is a dark ruby red. On the nose there's aromas of prunes, espresso, caramel, spice box, and anise. It's full bodied on the palate with sweet but dusty tannins and a bit of a tart acidity. For flavors it's a mouthful of prunes with raspberries, chocolate, espresso, and caramel. Then it finishes with raspberries, caramel, and smokiness.
