The wine exhibits a rich deep burgundy hue with a perfect clarity. The aromas are a compendium of opulent plums, blackberries, black raspberries and white pepper. The palate explodes with rich mouth filling blackberries, juicy red cherries, plums, black raspberries and boysenberries. The long, seductive finish is filled with hints of toast and cola with firm, round, yet supple mouth filling tannins.
