Tasting note

Deep ruby color with complex aromas of black fruits such as black currant, black cherry, and blackberry. Graphite, flint, and a touch of black pepper enhance the aroma. Firm acidity energizes the full-bodied wine, with black fruits dominating the palate. Polished tannins and a long, tart, and spicy finish.
