Top Notes For

8.9

Dark dark garnet to purple, dark raspberry on the edges
Mineral and raspberry and strawberry on the nose
Decent, medium legs
Medium acid and medium-to-high tannins give it an edge with some remaining softness, but could probably be even better decanted
Quite Lovely
Medium bodied
Dust and tannic finish

Cherry cola with a little bit of vanilla.Very light on the finish. Needs food to amplify the taste.

Nose: leather and strawberries. Palate: soft and smooth with just enough spice and smokiness.

Medium-bodied, medium tannins, would benefit from aeration upon opening.
