Ruby in color with aromas of tilled earth, sour cherries, cranberry and pomegranate. A hint of gaminess along with nuances of spicy oak, especially clove, also come through on the nose. Medium in body, the attack is of dark plum, with cherry fruit, tight tannins and pencil-lead complexity emerging on the middle palate.
