Rich and structured, aromas and flavors of cinnamon, vanilla and smoke. But fruits are still apparent, like blackberry and black cherry. Tannins are velvety and acidity is medium + and adds the necessary structure. This wine is yummy, it’s a go-to wine for me - I quite love it!

A great example from the region. Lush cherry and fresh blackberries. Née leather and spice.

This may have been the bottle of the night. Black fruit and licorice on the pallet. Full mouth feel as you would expect with some other earthy tones. Yummy
