Nose
aromas of raspberry, plum, tobacco leaves, and smoke.
Palate
Balanced acidity and supple tannins support this well structured wine where increasing volume on the palate and notes of blueberries, blackberries, violets, and white chocolate create layers of complexity enlivened by a sting of black pepper on the finish.
