Beautifully orchestrated, with an exciting mix of dark berry, espresso, mocha and cedary oak underneath a touch of hot brick. Impressively focused, this shows depth and persistence.
...rich, ripe and velvety smooth. The wine shows a warm-climate touch of overripeness in the chocolate-covered raisin flavor, which gives it a Port-like warmth. Otherwise, the flavors veer toward blackberry and cassis liqueur.
Sexy blackberry, blueberry and floral pastille aromas show impressive intensity and clarity. Broad and fleshy on the palate, offering sweet dark fruit flavors, a touch of spicecake and a smoky nuance. Leaves a sweet floral pastille quality behind on the long, supple and fruit-driven finish.
