Pleasant Pinot Noir-like aromas of forest floor, earth, and cardamom. Blackberry, with tar, tobacco, and a multitude of of flavor nuances. Excellent balance, very long finish. A gem of a wine and a great value.

Fruit forward nose with a little earthiness, black cherries and blackberries. Medium body, high acid, mild fruitiness on the palate but balanced spiciness.

Чёрные спелые фрукты, кожа. Благородно не грубо, даже элегантно, танины и кислотность в балансе.
