Tasting Notes
Lurid ruby. Heady red and blue fruit liqueur, licorice and violet aromas are complicated by allspice and smoky mineral nuances that build steadily in the background. Sappy and expansive in the mouth, offering appealingly sweet cherry cola and blueberry flavors that are sharpened and given backbone by a spine of juicy acidity. Plays richness off energy with a steady hand and finishes impressively long and gently tannic, leaving a sappy red fruit note behind.
