Medium garnet, fading to copper with bricking on the edges.  Medium viscosity (13% ABV).  The nose has medium (+) intensity aromas of prune, sweet dried cherry, blackberry jam, walnuts,  and leather- becoming intense.  The palate is dry, with medium acidity, a light body, and medium tannins that are fully melded.  I get the same flavors as the nose, but a touch sour. As it evolves I find it balanced with a hint of stewed rhubarb and dried cranberry giving it some zip.  The finish is medium in length and classically Old World.  91 points- drink till 2028.  No pricing information.  Salut….
