The 2010 version has aromas of red cherry, wild raspberry, cola and mocha. Extremely well- structured, the extracted tannin is complemented by toasty oak and balanced acidity. This wine has intense aromas of maraschino cherry, blackberry, fresh cut herbs, licorice and lavender while subtle oak spices complete the nose. Wild thyme and dried flowers counterpoint the vivid fruit. Indian spices and cinnamon round out the complex palette of aromas. In the mouth, a dusting of minerals is layered with cranberry and red raspberry and a lingering finish of black tea. Over time the tannin and acid will soften, highlighting the fruit-driven nature of the wine.
