This is vivid and densely purple. The first impression is of slurpably juicy, varietally transparent Syrah, with a layer of olive peeking out around the fruity edges; it's enjoyably balanced now, and will probably get a little subtler with a few years of age, though there isn't a ton of structure to burn. It wouldn't fool lovers of northern Rhônes, but it would probably please them, and isn't that the point?
