TASTING NOTES

Medium to dark ruby-colored. It has super-ripe sour cherry, mulberry, all spice and violet-scented nose. It has admirable amplitude and breadth in its medium to full-bodied, softly textured earthy personality. Cherry syrup-covered chocolate chip cookie dough-like flavors can be found in this beautifully structured wine. It possesses loads of tannins, yet they are ripe and supple.
