Nose
this wine
opens with a potpourri of dried cranberry and roasted, spiced fruit. The fruit is
augmented with dried herb bramble and a light dusting of cocoa. Ripe tannins
and good acidity support the abundant fruit gracefully, leaving a delicious, clean
finish that features nice length with a gentle grip and lingering ripe fruit.
