Dusty garnet color. Aromas and flavors of polished leather, mocha, black tea and black olives with pepper, and chocolate covered cherries with a velvety, lively, dryish medium-to-full body and a warming, nuanced, medium-long finish displaying notes of purple flowers, balsamic glazed mushroom, and blackberry and strawberry compote with chewy tannins and light oak flavor. A bold and tasty blend that will further integrate with some cellar time and be a delightful pairing with game meats as well as sirloin burgers.
