Definitely interesting wine, it combines very strange animal tones initially with very big fruits and more flowery and herbal nose. In the mouth it is not jammy at all, rather lighter to medium with higher alcohol and no tannins, definitely interesting wine and a bit of exposure to this region I did not have a lot of chances to drink.
