Deep purple color. Aromas of rose hip jam, dried cranberries, coconut, sandalwood, and allspice leaf with a lightly tannic, lively, dry-yet-fruity medium-full body and a layered, long milk chocolate, hints of espresso, caramel, and balsamic reduction finish with moderate oak flavor. A bold, chewy and complex Malbec with a sultry, almost smoky character.
