Deceptive color textures resembling a dark Beaujolais magenta sheen with undercurrents of rusty Nebbiolo when swirled at the right angle.
Aromas rife with musty leather, warm cherry, and a tangy earthy sage grass from a nose tendril pinching 14% heat.
Taught tongue-gripping tannins add a bit of tobacco tar tint to an otherwise welcomed medium light-bodied dark forest chocolate swirl, finishing with strong herbal notes of honeyed thyme island hills. — 7 days ago
