Opaque ruby. Spice-accented aromas of red and dark berry preserves, cured tobacco, olive and a smoky mineral overtone. Sappy, sweet and fleshy on the palate, offering juicy black raspberry, cherry-cola and floral pastille flavors with a touch of licorice. Steadily emerging tannins give shape to the persistent finish, which leaves behind sappy dark berry and exotic spice notes. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, December 2022)

Violets, blackberries, and dark soil. So good. I wish I had more!
