Abundant dark fruit aromas with notes of spice, vanilla, and a subtle earthiness waft from the glass. On the palate, the wine is bold, yet the balance of rustic tannins and acid are in perfect harmony. The flavor profile is deeply layered, with evolving characters from entry through the long finish. Drinking well now, with proper cellaring this wine is expected to age well for 5-7 years.
