Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of ripe dark fruit. Flavors of cooked blackberries, black currants and black plums. Extremely long and velvety finish. Light acidity. Not much in the way of tannins but really well balanced. Dense, Plush and Bold but a bit soft at the same time. Beautiful smooth texture. Part of the Capital Grill 2025 Generous Pour Program.

Deep purple color. Aromas of blackberry jam, plum and herbs. Amazing flavors of licorice, mocha and baking spices. Another hit by Orin Swift!
