Beautiful, clean nose of dark fruit, candied cherry, cedar, spice and integrated oak notes. Medium bodied and still fairly tight. Very clean with a long finish.

Full ruby. Slightly medicinal aromas of black cherry and bitter chocolate. Brooding and extremely backward, with sweet, penetrating flavors of cassis, black cherry and mint; a highly concentrated fruit bomb, with impressive thickness and depth. Still a bit tight on the back end; the tannins coat the teeth. Bodegas Mauro's Mariano GarcÃa is a partner in this venture.
