Description
This complex wine begins with vibrant aromas of red cherry and blackberry followed by a bouquet of violets, cedar, and bittersweet chocolate completed by earthy elements such as lint and dried shells. As the wine opens up, hints of currant and vanilla are revealed. Full bodied, this wine offers up youthful tannins of great quality, enriching the mid palate mouth feel. The mouth feel is round and creamy with smooth tannins, leading to a long finish. Already showing beautifully, this wine will continue to open and gain complexity in the bottle for years to come.
