Tasting Note:

Intense ruby in color this complex wine shows red and black currants bay leaves vanilla and spices on the nose. Bright blackberry and blueberry fruit with a hint of green pepper on the mouth. Good weight with vivid acidity combined with sweet supple tanic structure great concentration and a good length to make a seriously classy red.
