Medium full red, some purple. Funky nose, humus and slightly animal at first. Also has red fruits and soft summer berries. Palate harsh and somewhat hollow. Has medium-bodied and some flavour intensity. Lively, tight, firm and long. Liked it more & more. Has potential. Later: clean and no faults. Very pleasant. Soft, fine tannins. Better & better. Delicious, very fine wine. A wine I want to drink.
