Wow it does look like a tropical, or at least subtropical, storm!

Looks like an MCV to me at least at the start.

It was a very warm environment in those days over the Black Sea.
Noting the vigorous circulation around the cyclone center, it seems that the model is not representative of actual isobaric gradient around the cyclone studied (This often happens with a mesoscale cyclones ). There was a low pressure, with moderate vorticitY, it was a cyclonic system, not a MCV:
