 Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Deep ruby red with garnet reflections.

• Nose: Aromas of ripe cherries, wild berries, black plums, and violets are layered with notes of leather, licorice, tobacco, dried herbs, and a touch of spice and earthiness.

• Palate: Medium-to-full bodied with a silky yet firm tannic backbone. Juicy red and black fruits intertwine with hints of cedar, balsamic herbs, and sweet spice. Mineral notes and a touch of orange zest lift the finish.

• Texture & Finish: Structured and elegant, with fresh acidity, polished tannins, and a long, savory, persistent finish.

• Aging Potential: Drinkable now with decanting, but will continue to evolve beautifully through 2038–2043.
