Mocha, espresso, cloves and blackberry jam... A deep, rich wine... stunning aromatics, beautifully chiseled fruit and fabulous overall balance... plenty of richness in the glass... flat-out gorgeous.
Big, bold and expressive, featuring ripe, juicy plum and wild berry flavors, with touches of spice and cedar. Impressively supple, with a finish gripped by graceful and refined tannins.
Much more vibrant on the nose than the merlot, offering scents of blackberry, flowers, graphite and licorice. Dense but juicy, conveying lovely intensity without weight...
