Medium Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, floral and spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and raspberry with black pepper, fresh cut herbs and flinty notes. Medium+ finish, rustic dusty tannins, ending with fruit, floral, spice and mineral character.

What a bottle of wine...this really tells a story....Emily and I noticed the wine change flavours at least 4 times over the 2 hours we've been drinking it.....prunes/figs, hint of chocolate.....light spice and definite blackberry taste.....absolutely fabulous!!!

Finally uncoiling a bit. Still tight as can be, but better than a bottle from a year ago.
