Garnet color. Aromas and flavors of plum, cherry, cassis, and herbs and vanilla with a velvety, lively, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, subtle, medium-long finish with suggestions of boysenberry and loganberry, sweet baking spices, pipe tobacco, and vanilla creme fraiche on sautéed herbs with well-integrated tannins and moderate oak flavor. A very tasty wine that compels you to drink more; intense, complex and leaves you pondering where any one variety begins or ends.
