Glistening ruby-red. Powerful red and dark berry, espresso, floral oil and mocha scents are sharpened by a strong spicy topnote. Lush yet energetic as well, offering appealingly sweet black raspberry, cherry cola and candied rose flavors that show fine definition and back-end lift. Finishes very long and smooth, with discreet tannins framing lingering red berry preserve and floral notes. 23% new French oak. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, February 2022)
