AROMA
The nose opens with aromas of blackberry, black currant and boysenberry.
PALATE
The fruit elements are complemented with notes of forest floor, cigar box, dark chocolate and espresso. The wine is rich and balanced and French oak barrels add the ideal amount of complexity and notes of baking spice and warm vanilla. This is a full-bodied wine with integrated tannins that give it a long, lingering finish.
