Deep Ruby color with aromas of red fruits, floral and spice notes. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry, plum and blackberry with notes of cacao and pepper spice. Firm tannins, medium savory finish, ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes. Drink now!

Smooth and integrated tannins on PnP with slight aeration from cellar temp. Cocoa and mint with green tobacco leaf and smoldering spice. Surprising.

Lighter and more juice forward than I thought. Tannins come in second half a little high and harsh
