This is a walking bass line punctuated by bold-berry brass flourishes. Structured yet playful. Powerful yet composed. Deep ruby in the glass, it opens with aromas of blackberry tart, brown sugar, and fresh cedar. The palate lays down a sultry, soft cadence of black cherry reduction and baking spices—but if you give it time, let it find the rhythm, the concentration unfurls with rollicking yet polished riffs of fig, wild honey, anise, and graphite. It’s velvety, seamless, well-balanced, and underpinned by plush tannins.
