Nose
aromas of dark cherry, currant, and blackberry. Followed by vanilla, sweet herbs, and dark chocolate for a rich and layered nose.
Palate
Lush dark fruit melds with dark chocolate, toasted hazelnut, and tobacco. This vintage is both serious and soft, given the abundant palate and firm but finely-knit tannins.
Aging
20 months in small French oak barrels; 75% new oak
Appearance
Deep garnet
