Looks good in the glass, and smells pretty nice despite a hint of barnyard. In addition, there’s cola, vanilla and plum to consider. Fairly meaty in terms of feel, but not overly expressive and not quite reaching the upper echelon. Finishes with some gritty, hard-fighting tannins.

Jammy and sweet, with a dominant raisiny quality that comes with the midpalate and stays until the end. Along the way there’s some leather and smoke, but mostly it deals raisin flavors, firm tannins and heft. Imported by Haro Imports.
