Tasting Notes

A subtle trace of wood spice blends into stylish red fruit and game aromas. The medium weight flavors are firm yet suave and enjoy bright, racy acid support and solid finishing intensity. The ripe, compact tannins convey a more serious personality but not a more elegant one.

Note: from 65 year old vines
