A full-bodied wine with layers of complexity, concentrated black fruit and excellent balance. The wine's breadth and structure is complemented by a supple velvety mouthfeel, with the wine coating the mouth with satisfying tannins. The finish is long and satisfying. On the palate: Bold and intense, with blackberry cobbler, creme de cassis, toasted hazelnut, chocolate, toffee and strawberry judiciously balanced with dark and wild berry fruits, licorice, cardamom seeds and bakes rhubarb pie.
