Bright, dark red. Smoky red berries, black cherry and a whiff of meat on the nose. Wonderfully silky and sweet, with dark berry and chocolate flavors showing lovely subtle floral lift. This very juicy, savory wine finishes with firm but fine tannins and terrific length. I like the combination of sophisticated texture and mineral-driven verve.
