Deep purple colored with medium staining, and a high viscosity (14.5% ABV).  Medium  intensity aromas of ripe blackberry, cassis, grilled black plum, eucalyptus, cocoa powder, tomato leaf, and a hint of shredded coconut.  The palate is dry with medium acidity, a full body, and medium (+) tannins.  Medium (+) intensity flavors of ripe blackberry, black currant, black plum, spice, eucalyptus, cocoa powder and that green note which I am enjoying.  The finish is lush- gobs of ripe fruit with the silky tannins make for a delicious medium length ending.  Lovely stuff that I am pairing with pan-seared ribeyes.  91 points.  Drink this $14 wine till 2028.  5 stars.  Salut….
