WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Extraordinary dark cherry red color, intense violet, Mediterranean thyme and cassis aromas joined by notes of cocoa and spice. Full and intense on the palate, with ripe, velvety and elegant tannins. Flavorful and full bodied, with a characteristic, terror-imparted hint of graphite minerality.
TASTING NOTES:
Dark, bright-rimmed violet. Dark berries, cherry pit and licorice on the pungent nose, along with an emerging floral nuance. Broad and fleshy, showing very good depth and a hint of smokiness to bitter cherry and cassis flavors. Turns sweeter and livelier on the long, penetrating finish, which features mouthwatering acidity and sneaky tannins
