Deep, brilliant ruby. Oak-influenced cherry and dark berry aromas take on a spicy top-note as the wine opens up. In a round, fleshy, fruit-driven style, offering jammy blackberry and cherry-vanilla flavors that show good depth and no rough edges. Finishes broad and smooth, with discreet tannins and a lingering dark fruit note.

Dark blackberry and cedar meet with reductive tar and wild mints on the nose of this bottling. Concentrated black-plum and caramel flavors converge on the palate, where a strong burst of acid is a bit untethered.
