Description
The nose opens with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, black current and boysenberry. The fruit elements are complimented with notes of forest floor, cigar box, dark chocolate and espresso. The wine is rich and balanced and French oak barrels add the ideal amount of complexity with notes of baking spice and warm vanilla. This is a full-bodied wine with integrated tannins that give it a long, lingering finish. Stunning. Life span in a proper cellar 20-30 years.

This powerful red wine is dominated by flavors of dark fruit with cherry jam, toast, cocoa and baking spices. Integrated oak adds spice. Tobacco and briar flavors add complexity.
