Inky violets and purple fruit - a pop of fresh red fruit - anchoring of acidity - underground stream of blue and red fruit - moments of mineral and dried spice - dry tannins. Needs age or heavy decanting.

Exceeds expectations in it’s HR review…exceptionally smooth palate medium bodied viscous deep red red berry blend…light bouquet and almost esoteric flavor with luscious balance. Only minimum tannin and acidity with no mysterious inexplicable taste elements like earth of turtles…yes, I expect to hear of that soon…or other overlay notes.

Enjoy with Havarti cheese and crackers while sitting by the edge of the ocean enjoying the spray. Excellent wine.

Dark violet color with hints of blueberry fruit and a layer of dusty rose petals on the palate and a potential hint of grape stems.
