Nose
Pleasant varietal aromas of blackberry and cassis with a subtle oak overtone greet the nose.
Palate
Bright blackberry follows nicely in the mouth with substantial tannin and a bit more oak to flesh out rich, full flavors. Fruit and oak show up again nicely in the finish but are slightly eclipsed by tannin in this still youthful wine.
Aging
24 months in neutral French oak
Food Pairing
Drink now with a nice steak or age for more complex subtlety in the future.
