Blackberry/blueberry compote, brandied cherries, violets, tapenade, coffee beans, dried oregano, iron, green & pink peppercorns, game, jerky, smoke. Energetic rounded acid, light medium bodied, inky-juicy texture, minimal narrow smooth velvet tannins, long smoky-herbal-earthy finish. Highly aromatic, balanced rusticity/polish, secondary notes perfect for pairings.

Medium body, smooth tannin, black fruit, fruit of the forest, moderate acidity, fantastic herbiness, long finish. Absolutely delicious!

Gorgeously evocative nose of collapsed tannins, violets, cherries, grilled meat. Palate is blackberry, sour cherry, olive. Excellent structure. Medium-bodied with excellent finish. Wonderful with food, beautiful work.
