"Bright ruby-red. Aromas of black raspberry, mocha, licorice and graphite are lifted by sexy brown spices. Rich and lush in the mouth but with an attractive sugar/acid balance giving shape to the smooth, pliant flavors of black raspberry, espresso and bitter chocolate. Finishes plush and broad, with youthfully aggressive tannins and excellent spicy length. From "the south-facing side of Pritchard Hill at 1,300 feet," planted to clones 7 and 337."
