This wine has great potential, and is a steal at $20. However, it is not too drinkable right now, as the high tannins are not integrated yet, and dominate the palate currently. However, the nose is already beautifully lifted, bright, and floral: Red plum, cassis, dark cherry, violet, roasted red pepper, cocoa, vanilla, mint, and licorice. Medium-high acidity, with some tart raspberry, and coffee on the palate. I wouldn't touch this for a couple years. Tasted Oct. 2015.
