Description

Deep violet. Pungent, smoke-tinged blue fruit, floral, game and mineral aromas pick up a spicy nuance as the wine opens up. Appealingly sweet, smoke- and cracked pepper-accented cherry liqueur, blueberry, smoky bacon and violet pastille flavors show very good depth and surprising energy. The spicy note carries through a long, gently tannic finish that leaves a juicy, blue fruit note behind.
