It's a beauty offering a deep purple hue, notes of mulled cherries, red plums, roasted herbs, and licorice, full-bodied richness, sweet tannins, and a great, great finish.
...scented of blackcurrants, cracked pepper, cured meats and aniseed, with nuances of purple flowers... The medium-bodied palate offers layered fruits and bursts of freshness that highlight its spicy accents, and it finishes long and nuanced.
Pungent, mineral-tinged aromas of ripe black currant, cherry and vanilla are complemented by suggestions of black pepper, olive and violet. Concentrated black and blue fruit, exotic spice and smoky bacon flavors smoothly meld depth and energy. A smoky mineral element adds lift and energetic cut to a long, floral-dominated and gently tannic finish that leaves a repeating floral note behind.
Aromas of crushed berries and cracked black pepper. Full and layered with chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish.
