"Reductive notes reminiscent of leather, mushroom, and damp pavement mingle with sweet, juicy red-berry fruit and savory and baking spices. Chiseled tannins tighten up the plush fruit. There's tangy, crunchy freshness, silky texture and a mineral streak. Oodles of crowd appeal and a sense of place to boot." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"A vibrant bouquet loaded with red and blue fruits, savory spices, and dried flowers. The palate delivers juicy black cherry and wild black berry flavors with an intriguing earthy undertone. The wine has a lovely weight and texture with polished, structured tannins and vibrant natural acidity." 

Alcohol: 13.5%
