Medium ruby. Intoxicating aromas of raspberry, bergamot and a hint of marzipan. Ripe red summer berries of astonishing intensity and immediacy on the palate, showcasing strawberry, raspberry and backed by fig paste, milk chocolate and leather. Impressive length and finesse. I could drink this all day long.

Big ripe bing cherry. Really clean flavors, light oak and nice length and palate penetration. Very enjoyable.

Dark berries. Fresh crunchy fruit. Light vanilla and spicy toasted oak.
Nice complexity and silky textures. Long, savory finish. Excellent.
