My glass sucked for this, so keep this rating with a grain of salt. fresh open had a lot of ethanol aromas, some red fruit. After opening up, Hint of almost maple and cherry. Cranberry and small hints of the ethanol remain. Subdued darker berries. Early tastes have the twang of lemon acidity balance of tannins. Medium body. I am sure i would have liked this a fair bit more if i had let it open up more before starting, and had a proper glass. Will revisit if i have the chance. Likely id rate it higher. Steak and lemon butter asparagus pairing.

Dark garnet color. Complex aromas of lavender, violets, rose petals, red cherries and cinnamon. Red, blue and black berry fruit flavors with touches of baking spices, orange zest and fresh basil. Beautiful earthy note on the long finish. Medium bodied with soft tannins tannins and nicely balanced acidity. Delicate but bold at the same time. Excellent!
