...opens with dark concentration and generous aromas of dark licorice, cherry fruit, leather, tobacco, teriyaki and spice...nuanced and elegant...with balanced acidity and fine tannins.
Intense aromas of red cherry, violet, vanilla and pipe tobacco... Round, fleshy and sweet, displaying sweet red fruit compote flavors complicated by notes of nutmeg, mocha and licorice. Tannins build slowly with air but are nicely buffered by the wine's ripe red fruit. Finishes velvety, vibrant and long.
