fairly hot and heavy at first, as alcohol blows up your nostrils. but let it settle and you'll get dark, sultry aromas of leather and black plum in front of edgy, mildly citric cassis and red plum flavors. the blend is carmenère, petit verdot and shiraz, which is not something found on every shelf. like its cab franc-petit verdot partner, anke blend-2 is good but not great.
