Tasting Notes:
Dark garnet hue; Expect to find aromas of mixed wild berries, vanillin, clove, sage, cigar tobacco, cinnamon, sweet perfume and new French oak. Intense flavors of bright raspberry, chocolate covered strawberry, cedar spice and milk chocolate are supported by ripe tannin and a soft yet rich fleshy mid palate. This wine also possesses integrated toasty French oak, balanced acidity and a ripe and round approachable satin-like finish.
