Top Notes For

Deep tawny color, bright and barely opaque. Feminine, fragrant nose with notes of ripe black cherry, rose petals, fresh wet soil, red cedar and a little tar. Very impactful in the mouth with lots of chewy fruit matched with a nice acidity back bone. Medium plus finish. Still mostly primary and needs age to develop more interesting secondary flavors.
