Vivid ruby-red. Cherry, blackberry and a hint of licorice on the nose. Bitter cherry and blackberry flavors take on a spicy nuance on the back half. Shows good heft and closes long and chewy, with dusty tannins adding closing grip.

Glimmering red. Spice-laced red berry, cherry and floral pastille scents take on a smoky mineral quality with air. Shows a hint of musky earth on the palate, which offers sweet red/blue fruit, lavender flavors and a touch of allspice. Gains energy with air and repeats the floral note, carrying it through an impressively long, gently tannic finish.
