Medium ruby-red. Knockout nose combines blackberry, game, espresso and roasted nuts. Creamy-sweet, superconcentrated and deep; fleshy, harmonious and easygoing. Layered flavors of cassis and violet. Finishes suave and bright, with noble tannins and noteworthy vibrancy. Currently the wine's power is hidden by its sheer flesh and sweetness.
