Nose

Enticing aromas of cassis, blackberry, leather and violet.

Palate

Juicy, tightly coiled and penetrating, with the sharp delineation of the best examples from Howell Mountain Densely packed but closed in on itself. A very backward but extremely promising wine that finishes with broad, dusty, fine tannins and excellent length.

Aging

Aged 32 months in 100% new French oak.

Appearance

Bright medium ruby.
