Nose of; candied & tart red fruits. Black cherries, cherries, strawberry preserves, raspberries, blackberries, hint of black cherry licorice/cola, sweet elegant style spices, faint vanilla, fresh red roses and violets. The palate is round, lush, elegant, full bodied fruits that match the nose with some hints of blue fruits here & there. There's gentle understated baking spices of; clove, nutmeg, cinnamon & vanillin. Delicate, finely crushed rocks, rich, warm, dark soil, rose petals & violets, the faintest, soft, delicate, chalkiness & minerals. The acidity drips over the palate. The finish is round, full, lush fruits that go on and on and on. Beautifully delicate, ripe and smooth. Much like a well made, elegant, warm vintage from Burgundy. The name comes from a tree on the property that is of a place that apparently many people have woo'ed their lovers. ❤️

A bit bitter initially but with a buttery aftertaste with good balance. Works out pretty well with salmon with some shrimps and a fresh sallad.
