Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Fruity nose with red and black fruits, oak, spices, chocolates, light tobacco and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry and fruit forward on the palate.
Short finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour of airtime.
This 6 year old is peaking now and will continue to drink nicely in the next couple of years.
Easy drinking and nicely balanced.
Doesn't show like a Petit Verdot, but enjoyable nonetheless.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
