The bouquet and lush flavors explode with layers of black currant, dark berries, black licorice and oak notes. The palate is rich, dense and lush with concentrated flavors of cassis, dark fruit, dark chocolate, roasted coffee and dried violets.

The long, elegant finish is complex, with a firm tannin structure and earthiness that complement layered flavors of black fruit, violets, spice and a touch of mocha.
