The wine gleams invitingly with its intensive and dense garnet red color. The complex bouquet captivates with discreet spicy aromas, with cocoa together with wild berries and sweet cherries in the background. Distinctive tannin structure, smooth fullness, playful yet rustic elegance and youthful freshness as well as a long, juicy finish classify the palate.

"Brambly herb, spice and mocha aromas lace the dark and juicy core of blackberry and mulberry fruit flavors in this vivid red. Concentrated and focused in a balanced, medium-bodied frame, with lively, plum skin acidity and light, supple tannins. Drink now through 2034. 5,000 cases made."
