Deep purple-red in color. Dark aromatic tones of licorice, graphite and boysenberry. The palate feel is full and ripe with cassis, luxardo cherry and cocoa dust. Fine-grained oak tannins provide an anchoring presence and lend a roasted savory note to the long finish. Poured at cool cellar temperature, this wine will shift through a range of aromas as it warms in the glass. Pair with braised meats or a warm bitter-greens salad.
