Intense red color with violet tones, aromas of black cherry, red plum, cocoa, and sweet vanilla in oak. In the mouth, it comes right at you with a burst of black cherry and tangy red fruit, and trails into delicate flavors of chocolate, tobacco, coffee and oak. It achieves that elusive combination of concentration, complexity and finesse.
