Intense dark burgandy red in color showing lush and delicate notes of fresh red roses, cherries, vanilla and charcoal under a thin layer of slate. Wow! Medium to light in body with great acidity that lifts those fine tannins right off the palate leaving a lush rich cherry flavor lingering on the palate behind a tidelwave of bright red fruit! I'm having trouble writing and tasting as I'd rather keep dipping my nose in the glass! Good straight-forward wine that will age beautifully.

WA 90Pts - Tasting Notes - Inky violet. Deep cherry and cassis aromas complicated by an array of floral, mineral and herbal nuances. Powerful dark fruit flavors are firmed by solid tannins and lifted by gentle minerality. Picks up smoked meat and anise notes on the long, chewy finish.
