"Rooty, spicy, and baked on the nose, with aromas that lean towards raisin. The palate is more gritty and acidic, with raisin, cola, and spicy flavors. Darkens up on the finish, which is long and peppery, with adequate juiciness and a final note of tomato."

My opinion: This wine has a much stronger smell, but a very smooth flavor. It goes down easy, with a bit of a bite for an aftertaste. Not overly flavorful, which is too bad since it has a very nice texture.
