Sweet smoked cacao on the nose, medium bodied, that has flavors of bark, roasted corn silk, playing with ganache wrapped tannins. Completely enjoyable carmenere with just a touch of heat.

Notes of bing cherry, green bell pepper, plum, dill and hint of vanilla. Full-bodied with round tannins, good acidity and a very long finish. Also getting notes of red raspberry and baking spices.
