Saturated garnet color. Mineral- and spice-tinged black raspberry, cherry-cola and lavender aromas are complemented by a smoky nuance and a hint of botanical herbs. Well-concentrated yet energetic as well, offering palate-staining red/blue fruit, floral pastille and spicecake flavors that are supported by an undercurrent of smoky minerality. Finishes very long and focused, with repeating red berry, spice notes and slowly building tannins. 28% new French oak.
