This is a beautiful wine with dark berries, mushrooms and pretty ripe berry undertones. Fruit tea as well. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and a reserved finish. Light iodine at the end. Drink now or hold.

Deep magenta. Expansive red and blue fruit, floral and spice scents are underscored by emerging mineral and succulent herb flourishes. Firm and focused in the mouth, offering bitter cherry, boysenberry, candied rose and cola flavors that unfurl steadily through the midpalate. Shows good depth and energy as well, finishing very long and gently chewy, with fine-grained tannins adding framework and final grip. 50% new oak.
