Deep Ruby with aromas of black fruits and herb spice, aged 18 months in a combination of French and American oak. On the palate flavors of blackberry and plum with tobacco, licorice and herb black pepper spice. Drying big tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and leafy spice.

Fruit forward with blackberry and currants. A touch of leather and cocoa. Smooth tannins and nice finish.

Always surprisingly rich and complex for the price.. dark fruit, charcoal, and dark chocolate with soft tannins and a bit of leather on the finish. Really shows a balance between terroir and power.

Nothing wrong just a case of lighter than I want.
