"Opaque ruby. Sexy, high-pitched black and blue fruit aromas are complemented by smoky Indian spices and potpourri. Supple and expansive on the palate, offering juicy boysenberry and bitter cherry flavors and a hint of licorice. Firms up slowly on the finish, which features silky tannins and suave floral character."
