Tasting notes
Bright ruby-red. Highly expressive red and blue fruit preserve, baking spice, vanilla and incense aromas are complemented by a smoky mineral flourish. Juicy, seamless and expansive on the palate, offering sweet black raspberry, boysenberry, cherry cola and floral pastille flavors energized by an undercurrent of juicy acidity. Shows noteworthy tension and spicy lift on a long, energetic finish that features well-knit tannins and resonating florality. 21% whole clusters and two-thirds new oak.

Beautifully fragrant, fresh and dried flowers with red and dark cherries, as well as raspberries and notes of freshly tilled earth and dark spices. The palate is beautifully detailed with a fresh, lithe and juicy array of plum and toasted-spice flavors. Long, expansive tannins. Drink or hold.
