Top Notes For
Randy Fuller

This wine colors up a medium-dark ruby in the glass. It has a savory nose, while showing plenty of blackberry, black plum and black cherry. The oak spice is lovely, with clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, anise and a slight note of coffee. The palate is just as much a treat as is the nose. Dark fruit shows strongly, with a good acidity and tannic grip. It is not a brawny wine, but it is not too delicate, either. The finish lingers awhile and leaves a savory memory behind.

Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berries and sweet spices. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cherry with licorice, vanilla, cedar and cinnamon. Fine tannins, medium+ finish, lively acidity, good structure, ending with fruit, cedar and earthy spice. Nice!
