"Deep brilliant magenta. Intensely perfumed aromas of black and blue fruit preserves, exotic spices and potpourri pick up a smoky mineral nuance with air. Juicy and energetic in the mouth, displaying sweet blueberry, cherry and salty olive flavors, along with hints of spicecake and candied violet. The floral and spice notes carry through a strikingly long, penetrating finish that features harmonious tannins and a touch of bitter chocolate." Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, Sep 2019 |
