Dark nose of blackberry and toasted spice. Palate shows intensely dark fruit (blackberry, chocolate, black olive), but it's surprisingly light-bodied. It's got powerful acidity but not much tannin, and the finish feels a bit thin and empty. Good with fatty beef, but could definitely use some soft tannin to plump up the palate and balance the acidity.
