On the nose, lightly candied; blackberries, black raspberries & dark plum. Sweet tarry notes, black licorice, light vanilla & cinnamon, rich dark earth and beautiful lavender & violets.

On the palate, it’s ripe and rich fruits of, blackberries, black raspberries, black plum, dark cherries, strawberries late & plum. Crushed rocks, dark moist soils, dry stones, light vanilla and very light cinnamon, black cherry cola/licorice, well round acidity and a rich, polished, elegant finish.
