Deep ruby colored with slight staining, and a high viscosity (14.5% ABV).  The nose has medium (+) intensity aromas of dried cranberry, black plum, baking spice, dried herbs, blackberry coulis, dark pomegranate, and petrichor.  The palate is dry, with medium (+) acidity, a medium body, and medium (+) tannins that are chalky.  The flavors are of medium intensity and more secondary driven- chalk, iron, baking spice, dried herbs, and slate followed by dark red fruit and some blackberry.  The tannins are all-encompassing.  They seize the moment and grip from start to finish, slightly overshadowing the fruit on the palate.  The finish is medium (-) as a result.  It’s got lots of promise, and cellaring capacity.  Time will be kind to this wine and will reward the patient.  I would either decant/aerate it for immediate consumption or start drinking it from 2027 till 2035.  It’s a big wine that gets 92 points from me and at $25, 5 stars.  Salut….
