Dark ruby with developing aromas of violet , blackberry, cherry, raspberry, tar, cedar, chocolate and nutmeg. This wine has high alcohol, medium body and tannins and acidity. The palate matches the nose but the secondary and tertiary flavors overshadow the fruit. Medium plus finish. Drink now but will improve with age.

Very beautiful deep red. The nose is convincingly soft; fruity aromas (chocolate, vanilla, plum, black berries).Medium wood; dry finish. Pleasant finish. Present on the palate, with a balanced mix of fruit and woody/earthy notes. Powerful body with above average complexity. I suspect significant increases with age.

Espresso, licorice and dark cherries complete for your attention. The wine is forward, requiring very little aging time before you start enjoying its silky, kirsch character. The wine was made from blending 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc.
