Dark ruby red with a slight purplish hues. Some greenery, iron and forest floor on the nose. A little savory too. Layered and complexity on the palate with aniseed, dark berries and orange zest. Moderate tannins (6.5/10) and medium plus bodied. Long finish. Drink till 2020.

Label is sorta ‘artsy’. Dark as night. Aroma is dense with a hint of wood. Juicy flavors. Hint of minerality to go with the fruit jams and cherry/berry sauces. Plums. A very CA wine.

Heavy feeling, almost syrupy, very savory, plums, cassis, and cherries. Long finish but kinda green and bright.
