Lovely, elegant stuff, smooth and polished, carrying its black cherry, coffee and spice flavors on a velvety frame, all of it lingering effortlessly on a cedary finish.
Chocolate, blackberries, and cassis can be found in the nose...medium-bodied character packed with chunky layers of licorice, black fruits, and notes of road tar. Rustic and firm, it reveals outstanding depth of fruit.
Superripe, slightly roasted aromas of currant, raspberry, chocolate, graphite and mocha. Sweet, thick and rich, with lush, creamy berry flavors complemented by milk chocolate and smoky oak... Impressively concentrated.
...more substantial weight and tannin. Walla Walla strawberry fruit flavors are here in abundance, with nicely managed oak and a long, smooth mid-palate.
