This wine is exceptional. Aroma of chocolate, plum, roses, and subtle cigarette smoke. Smooth & velvety on the palate. Lush, ripe notes of chocolate-dipped cherry and plum, cherry pie, raspberry yogurt, & dates. Low acidity. Medium-minus tannin; less tannic and structured for a Cab. Lingering dry, fruit-juice finish.

I’ve had this before but never enjoyed it quite as much as tonight. Kirsch on the nose. Black fruit and black licorice on the palate.
