Tasting notes:

Lush and concentrated, with aromas of cassis, violets and dusty rose leading to a plush mid-palate impression having currant, hazelnut and black cherry notes. The finish is seamless, melding the lush tannins with spice, vanilla and a dusting of cacao.

Winemaking notes:

The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks and left on the skins 30 days for extended maceration. This wine was twice racked for clarity and then lightly polished.
