Tasting notes
Sleek and polished, with an herbal, green olive edge to the earthy currant, coffee and sage flavors. A solid value that offers complex, concentrated flavors, with a long, persistent finish.

Deep red. Roasted strawberry, mocha and spicy oak on the nose, with complicating hints of tobacco, currant leaf and game. Sweet and spicy in the mouth, with slightly roasted yet cool flavors of spicy red fruits, tobacco and caramel. Offers lovely verve, very fine tannins and noteworthy persistence. This has turned out nicely, but still needs some time in bottle to harmonize.
