“Purple-ruby. Aromas of sour red cherry, black tea leaf and licorice are perked up by a violet element. Juicy and pliant, with enticing inner-mouth perfume to the very clean, pure flavors of redcurrant, sour red cherry, tobacco and iron. Finishes aromatic and long, with serious but suave mounting tannins and notes of mint and violet.”
