Dark purple color, moderate to strong aroma of dark fruit; this wine is medium-full bodied and notably smooth with soft tannins. Initial flavors of spice and blackberry are joined by a little cherry as it breathes. Well balanced and flavorful with a long finish.

Damn good. The texture on this wine was great. Gritty dark cherry milk chocolate, moderate tannin (almost intrusive) that needs lots of air and time to integrate. Good acid on fruit. This was awarded a double gold by the chronicle and is deserved. If drinking now, pair with fatty wet BBQ.

Strong nose of blueberries, croissant, and hints of potting soil. Potent, lip-smacking and jammy. Spicy finish. Drink now.
