Purple-red, light-to-moderate pigment extraction. Herbal, barrel tar, blueberry and raspberry notes in nose. Cherry flavor with great length mixed with hints of blueberry and blackberry with slight seed bitterness on finish.. Light, bright, almost no tannins on initial pour. Delightful and balanced.

Really blown away by these wines. Has an amazing reduction and an added layer of smoke, morello cherry, and laser-like acidity

Boom. A bit of oak that'll integrate, bright red fruit, lovely acidity.
