Tasting Note:
Crème du mure, violets, chocolate covered blueberries and espresso lurk in the dark and heavy aromas of this wine. Massive sweet dark summer fruits on the attack are brightened by fresh raspberry in the mouth with fresh violet pastilles and baked bread. What starts out as a scary dark and brooding wine is balanced out by really sweet tannins and bright red fruits. A persistent finish that is clean and fresh, in spite of the enormous weight and texture of this beast.
