Tasting Notes

A deep, brooding and almost taciturn nose of black berry fruit and intense violet notes with spice hints and iron-infused earth merge into sweet, rich and exceptionally fresh big-bodied flavors that are textured and completely saturate the palate with buckets of dry extract while at the same time buffering the ripe but very firm tannins. This too will easily deliver two decades of cellar potential. Terrific.
