The richness of the wine is immediately apparent. The dark fruit, fresh earth, and blackberry aromas fill the glass. A solid core of mixed berries, kirsch, and mocha flavors anchor the mid-palate while subtle shades of oak, sage, and sweet leather offer a complex support system. The finishing texture is clean and full with firm acid and fine tannins that linger with the juicy currant, cedar, spice, and black cherry notes.
