Medium garnet, some bricking, bright. Excellent tertiary character and integrated oak: smoke, sweet wood, dark red fruit, blackberry, toasted coconut, vanilla, milk chocolate, mint, light alcohol. Soft acid with balanced residual sugar,medium-full bodied, red- black berry fruits. Good length with gentile heat.
