Tasting note

This dry, full-bodied and fruity red displays a complex and intense nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity, firm tannins, and broad texture precede a long finish.

“This dense red exhibits a tangy damson plum note that leads the way for iron and lilting black tea flavors, all followed by darker charcoal and fig character. There’s a nice ying-yang of velvet and iron on the finish. Drink now through 2019.” 91 pts, Wine Spectator *Recommended: drink or hold (can be enjoyed now but may also be matured further by cellaring).
