Deep red with a hint of Brown. thin white border at the rim. Magnificent. Boquet of flowers. Licorice. warm vanilla. marmalade. Dry fruit. Smooth. Powerful tanins & acids.very ripe fruit. very long. Puckery tannins. Strong alcohol. Fruit fades beneath a bitter ending. Fantastic wine! A little aggressive. could use a little more time. Ralf's other wine was slightly better.
