The nose is more sexy and draws you in. Spectacular floral fruits. Rich, ripe, lush; Blackberries, dark cherries & creamy black raspberries. Black licorice, vanilla, dark chocolate, caramel, hints of dark spice, black fruit tea, limestone, sandy dry soils, sweet tarry notes, suede leather, fresh tobacco with fresh, dark red and blue florals.

The body is ripe and juicy. Medium soft delicate wet clayish tannins. Beautiful length and balance. Soft tension. Rich, ripe, lush; Blackberries, dark cherries & creamy black raspberries. Black licorice, vanilla, dark chocolate, caramel, hints of dark spice, black fruit tea, limestone, sandy dry soils, sweet tarry notes, suede leather, fresh tobacco with fresh, dark red and blue florals.

Full bodied, well rounded, air it out for a bit. Special, small batch winery.
