Aromas of tart cherry, spiced plum compote, and fresh raspberry drive the nose of this Cabernet. The palate delivers surprising weight, with decadent tannin, juicy acidity, and flavors of baked cherry, licorice, black pepper, and purple flowers all through the finale.

Tasting Notes

Rich flavors of black cherry, currant, and dark chocolate unfold seamlessly, carried by firm tannins and a round, velvety texture.
