Tasting Notes
Dark ruby-garnet color with violet highlights and a delicate rim. Ripe plum fruit with hints of blackberry jam, subtle hints of spice, and tobacco-like nuances. Juicy, well-balanced, fresh wild berry fruit, extract-driven sweetness, pronounced tannins, a delicate hint of caramel on the finish; needs a little more time; sweet dark berry fruit in the aftertaste.
