Fresh raspberries starts off the nose with red fruits punctuated by rich strawberry jam, and bolstered by vanilla, black pepper, and violets. It is a bold, layered wine offering generous fruit enveloping great structure. Showing notes of blackberry, dried currants, mocha, it continues onto the palate with a supple texture that is lifted by vibrant acidity. The finish lingers with young, yet integrated tannins and dusty earth. It will cellar for 10+ years or pair very well with food now.
