Dusty garnet color. Aromas and flavors of stewed plums, cedar shavings, red and black cherry, and red currant with a satiny, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, subtle, medium-long finish conveying impressions of cherries, oolong tea and cigar box, demerara sugar stewed red fruit, and leather with medium, firm, grippy tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. Earthy with subtle hints of perfumed spice, this wine is bold in body and flavor, making it ideal for dinner.
