The wine has a beautiful cherry color. The nose is fresh, smoky, and aromatic. There are notes of cherry and crisp blackberry. There is a hint of blue plum and mint. The second nose opens with a hint of reduction: the wine needs air. There are crisp wild berries. The palate is fresh and fruity with good acidity from the start. There are notes of blackberry, juicy cherry, and plum. The tannins are present, almost saline, and grippy until the finish. There is a slight, almost licorice-like darkness on the palate. The finish has a hint of bitterness with a note of crisp blackberry.
