"On the nose, the deep, rich and seductive aromas of ripe berries, red fruits and chocolate are layered with nuances of black tea, clove, blood orange zest and cigar box. On the palate, the generous flavors of black raspberry, dark cherry, cassis, ripe currants, cinnamon, hickory spice and dark chocolate truffle are complemented with a harmonious mixture of smooth, silky texture, chewy tannins, firm structure, and a lingering finish. Overall, an extremely well-crafted wine that is not only approachable when young, but also worthy of cellaring for more 10-15 years."
Chris Sawyer - Cert Somm
"Dark, ripe berries with a hint of toasted oak aromas lead into dark chocolate and cassis flavors that shine through the structured, mouthfilling tannins that are silky and plush. This is sure to improve with age; best now through 2025."
