Tasting
A deep red in the glass, the nose is framed by violets with dark chocolate and graphite in the mix.
Decidedly medium bodied with plenty of oak derived spice that gives a counterpoint to the tightly bound dark fruits that are yearning for time in the bottle to fully express themselves. There are grainy tannins and a rolling finish of dark fruits and a faint leather aspect.
