The word hedonistic comes to mind. Deep purple with a ruby rim. Explosive aromatics; raspberry, cherry, chocolate and white pepper attack with the first splash. Dense and full bodied with an expressive array of fruit and spice. Chocolate covered cherries, pomegranate, blackberry compote invade your palate. Velvety textured, harmoniously integrated acid tannin and alcohol glide to a lush finish with kirsch liquor, licorice and a final nuance of black truffle. I WANT more!!!

This was the first great wine experience. The first time I stepped out for an unknown varietal from an unknown locale. This was a gateway!
