The color is a beautiful shade of crimson that leads to a nose of bright red berries and cranberry.  The palate exhibits a supple mouthfeel supported by sweet tannins and a backbone of complementary acidity with flavors of red and blue berries accented by notes of minerality and spice.  A lingering finish is framed by integrated tannins and fruit with underlying acidity serving to create  length, subtle power and complexity.
