"Dark ruby-garnet with violet highlights and subtle lightening at the rim. Delicately leafy underlain with blackberry nuances, subtle licorice, a hint of orange zest, a fine vegetal spiciness, and smoky minerality. Juicy, round and sweet, with elegant, fine tannins, prominent spicy oak; a hint of nougat and caramel, round and yet multi-faceted."
