"Opaque purple. Intense, spice-accented dark berry and floral pastille aromas show excellent clarity and a building smoky nuance. Round and fleshy on the palate, offering sweet blueberry and cherry compote flavors and a hint of lavender pastille. Dusty tannins firm the penetrating finish, which clings with serious tenacity and echoing spiciness. There are 2% mixed blacks included in this wine, which is carrying 15.2% alcohol."
