Nose
An explosive nose of coffee, red and black fruits, Russian sage, and garden herbs. Lesser notes follow of crème cassis, currant, and black olive.
Palate
On the palate, the wine is dense, sweet, and broodingly dark. Simply perfect fine-grained tannins melded with laser-focused acidity deliver impressive length that lingers on the palate.
Aging
22 months in new and once filled French oak barrels, and neutral oval botti.
Appearance
Impenetrably dark.
