...gorgeous and intense bouquet of ripe red and black fruits (black raspberries, strawberries, currants) that gives way to more minty herbs, black tea, and sappy, floral nuances. This beauty is ripe, medium to full-bodied, has a supple, elegant mouthfeel and a rich yet still graceful and light-on-its-feet style that has so much to love.
White pepper, pomegranate, sweet dark cherry and slightly dialed-back acidity meet with a brick wall of fine, chalky tannins that are imposing at this stage.
Creamy aromas of boysenberry jam and lilac lead from the nose into a palate wrapped in chalky tannins and dripping in black plum, violet and blueberry flavors.
Dark cherry and black plum on the nose. Fine-grained, grippy tannins and fresh acidity. Well-integrated oak with just a touch of spice and vanilla.
