Burst of green bell pepper at the start that’s fading to dusty ripe fruit on the verge of jammy, but not there yet. Baking spices to an almost berry pie without a crust flavor. Tannins form a firm backbone and has a sweet to spicy to round ripe finish. Delicious.

Cherry, blueberry and cassis notes with a hint of vanilla. Nice tannins with a slight bite is pepper on the finish.

Dark cherry and notes of cassis with earthy notes. Nice balanced acidity and tannins.
