"Inky, saturated purple. Expansive (and expensive) bouquet of boysenberry, blackberry liqueur, candied plum, high-fat chocolate, espresso, fruitcake, vanilla bean and sexy oak spices. Lush, mouthfilling, sweet and deep, the array of dark berry flavors reaching every surface of the palate; shows uncanny freshness and energy for a wine with such flavor volume. Creamy in texture, but bright acidity and exotic spice notes keep things lively through the extremely long aftertaste. I've put this on my list of things to buy when I hit Lotto."
