Wine Anthology Team Review-An example of excellent winemaking! Perfectly balanced with flavors of black currant, fig, sage and mocha. Silky in it's presentation and comes with a long, lingering finish. Will benefit from a few more years bottle aging but drinking really well right now. Enjoy!
"Bright cherry-red color and a rim with roof tile tones. High aromatic intensity, clean and sound.

It is well balanced with a velvety attack followed by a pleasant acidity and a silky and full-bodied aftertaste resulting from its noble and ripe tannin. Its long aftertaste has spicy and balsamic hints, resulting from its long and peaceful ageing, as well as confit fruit nuances that uncover its personality." —winemaker
