Heavy deep rose petal. Suave oak. Absolutely sex ruby red color. Haven't seen a more beautiful color wine in a decade. Great finish. Bravo. Bravo Market staff. Bought off the list. At a very reasonable price.

Cherry, tobacco, cigar box, thyme. Silky texture, smooth tannins. One of the most balanced wines I've ever had.
