Crimson in color. 14% ABV. Savory nose of red fruits, crushed gravel, leather and flowers. Medium body with firm acidity. Concentrated with tart fruits. Dried cherries, cranberries, earth and minerals on the palate. The finish is long and supple. Approachable now but 2-4 years in the cellar would be beneficial. James Mantone is a master with Rhone varieties and this wine holds tremendous promise.
