...masculine and mineral-laced...offering a bloody, meaty bouquet of black raspberries, iron, crushed rocks, toasted spices, rose petals, and crushed flowers. With surprising elegance and purity on the palate, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish...
Deep, mysterious and resonant... Sweet tobacco, grilled herbs, menthol, licorice and earthy notes meld into a core of black cherry and plum fruit...has a distinctive savory quality...
...scents of dried orange peel, cranberry, rose petal, potpourri, wild blackberries, black cherries, oolong tea leaves, tobacco and peppery notes. The light to medium-bodied palate is savory with firm, grainy tannins, good freshness and a spicy finish.
Notes of menthol and spice are present on the fresh mix of red and dark berry aromas that flash subtle spice and tea nuances. The very pliant, round and plump flavors are quite forward and almost easy-going while possess a seductively caressing mouthfeel that tighten up somewhat on the lingering and refreshing finish.
