Sample
A deep red in the glass. The nose has dark plum and blackberry fruit that is lifted by dark chocolate and vanillin notes from the use of American oak.
Good definition of dark fruits initially that are wrapped in a web of both grape and oak derived tannins that are prominent at this point in the wines development, there is a gentle thread of cedar and spice to finish with length of blackberry and raspberry fruit.
