This is blood ruby.
Blackberry and cherry cola and chambourd. Lightly flinty with soft tannins, finishes a little hollow to be a total blockbuster. It took forever to open up but when it finally did - wow - finally got a sense of the depths here - steak blood and oranges - orange beef with a light mandarin spice. It's short on herbs and spice, and so it might be a little untraditional for this region, but it shows a lot of class. I'd cellar this for at least 3-5 years before taking another look. An excellent wine.
