Deep scarlet violet glass with translucent purple rim. Deep nose of blackberry, blueberry, violets, cassis, anise, pencil shaving, tobacco and hints of cinnamon & vanilla. On the palate, a dry acid of medium body opens to black fruits, spice box, and black pepper. Medium tannins hold grip for a medium long dry cassis filled peppery/chalky finish. Balanced but slightly shifted to the nose with good structure. Good value at $16.98 USD for rich food/red meats accompaniment.

Mar 4th, 2016Red violet glass with translucent red violet rim. On the light to medium nose, blackberry, cherry, cinnamon, clove, black pepper and a whiff of licorice. On the palate, the cherry leads but soon overtaken by a mouthful of small to medium tannins. Finishes dry due to the tannic pull with ending of cinnamon and black pepper. Decant to get the nose aromas and serve with rich food to enjoy acidic dryness. Maybe better in a few years as tannins age. Very good value at $16.22 USD.
