Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet, deep color core, purple reflections, brightening to rim. Sweet, attractive roasted aromas, exotic oak influence, hints of cedar, vanilla, coffee, licorice, plus cassis and candied purples. On the palate multi layered, dark berry fruit, vivid but silky tannins, richly structured but finessed. A highly elegant wine full of youthful charm, pleasant caramel notes on the finish, tremendous length, already very inviting, with good forward potential.
