Clear copper red body, medium puffy cream head that fairly quickly dissipates. Aroma sweet-tannic with caramel, brown sugar, grape/vinous notes, and toasted malts. Body sharp, sweet, and tannic with dark fruits and caramel, with a lingering but modest tannic finish. Hints of apple with warmth. Fairly simple but ultimately feels fairly substantial as the booziness becomes more apparent. Solid.
