Expressive on the nose with notes of baking spices, cedar, fig, and black cherry. Notes of brooding red fruit flood the palate—the wine is soft yet structured on the palate, with plush tannins, moderate acidity, and a long finish that lingers with notes of black tea and bramble.

Wine Spectator
A polished and frankly toasty style, with a cocoa note draped over a core of plum sauce and steeped black cherry fruit flavors. Long and fine-grained through the finish, with a melted licorice element checking in along the way. For the fruit-loving crowd. Drink now through 2032.
