Tasting notes

Deep red colour with lighter more onion-coloured rim. Quite intence and complex nose with hints of leather, coffee, old wood, dust, cherries, stable. Powerful in the mouth with still good concentration of fruit. More cherry-notes here. Some leather and coffee. High acids and good length. Still tannins left. This is surprisingly backward and on top now, but will last.
