Pronounced black cherry and plum nose, with anise, pepper and crushed stone notes. Ample, brambly blueberry and black raspberry on the palate, with good acidity. Bursting with juicy goodness, some--but not too much--grip, and a 40+ second finish with spice and mineral. A real beauty. My one wish, if any, would be for just a bit less residual sugar.
