Tasting Notes

Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Nov 15
Deep ruby. Powerful, highly perfumed aromas of ripe red fruits, potpourri and incense, with Asian spice, mineral and woodsmoke nuances adding complexity. Sweet, broad and palate-staining, offering intense raspberry and cherry flavors enlivened by juicy acidity and a suggestion of peppery spices. Concentrated yet lithe wine with outstanding finishing clarity and lift; smooth tannins blend seamlessly with the wine's intense fruit.
