Deep purple in the glass. Nose is expressive with smoked meats, leather and a little eucalyptus. Rich dose of cassis/framboise on the palate. Tannins are there but don’t overpower the fruit. Not hyper extracted - just dense and chewy. Finish is long with a hint of salinity. Outstanding. More powerful style than Turley but balance is still there.
