Deep violet red in color. This wine offers up a wonderful bouquet of sweet ripe black cherries on the nose complimented by just a hint of apple peel. This rich, dark and supple wine fills the palate with a mouthful of ripe berry compote that is nicely balanced by spice and earthy notes. With great structure and grip, this wine keeps pumping out its vivid ripe berry flavors all the way through its long, juicy finish.
