Black cherry and plum notes with a healthy dose of vanilla on the nose. Not quite as full bodied as has been typical for this label. Medium fine tannins. Brought to a neighborhood Chinese restaurant and paired with sizzling beef, typical vegetables and fried rice.

Nose of black cherry and plum with a touch of vanilla oak and spice. Rich mouthfeel on a solid tannic backbone for a full body. Dark fruit flavors mid and forward palate, absent too much residual spice. Lingering medium length finish. Throws a fair amount of sediment at the end. Paired nicely with slow cooked lamb stew.

Deep red with a touch of purple, densely packed nose with plum, dark cherry and Rosemary.
Palate is full bodied with spice and cedary oak giving character to super concentrated dark fruits. The tannins are firm but rounded, acidity is vibrant and required to compete and provide structure with the dominant primary fruits, the wine will cellar well over the medium term.
