Supple and streaked with chocolate and caramel, this explosion of cherry, cassis, cola and Dr. Pepper contains sneaky notes of tobacco and pepper threaded through the lingering finish. Richness and depth prevail throughout.
...complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes candied red fruits, rhubarb and allspice, with musky herb and vanilla nuances building in the glass. Offers an array of red fruit flavors that put on weight and gain spiciness with air. A floral note comes up on the finish, which clings with impressive tenacity and focus.
Fresh, open-textured and appealing, with mint-accented blackberry and cherry flavors, remaining light and expressive through the minerally finish.
Bright red and black fruits with lots of depth on the nose shifts to bursting flavours of briar with fresh-picked fruits and integrated spice and savoury notes on the palate. The acidity is almost electric here while still offering an overall sense of elegance. As the wine opens it reveals nuance of juniper and more savoury character. Suave, fine tannins and a persistent, long finish.
