Nose
Dense and heady
aromas of espresso, dark cocoa, sweet tea, chocolate cake, and
black raspberries.
Palate
The ultra decadent palate unfolds bold and
succulent with flavors of juicy black plums, milk chocolate,
christmas spices, blackberries, toasted marshmallow, and
hints of sweet tobacco, amid silky smooth tannins and a
certain sort of flirtatious persistence that begs another taste.
Growing Conditions
A voluptuous and hedonistic offering.
