This firm red shows a savory character, with tobacco, licorice and dried herb notes. A core of cherry fruit keeps this balanced, showing a structure of firm tannins and balsamic acidity. Drink now through 2020. 3,000 cases made.
Leather, dried cheese, wood grain, blackberry and cassis aromas make for a ripe attractive modern bouquet. This is mouthfilling, with full but controlled tannins. Baked blackberry, chocolate and mocha flavors come with bacon and hickory notes prior to a smooth finish. Drink through 2022.
