Nice dense ruby color. Opens with a bourbon barrel bouquet of buttery caramel with black currant and hints of licorice. Fuller in body with moderately firm tannins and nicely balanced acidity. The palate offers dark cherry, minerals and some tobacco leading to a nice finish on this California Bordeaux style wine
