Oaky, resiny berry and cassis flavors finish chocolaty, with intense tannins. This complex, yet well balanced wine presents an elegant style with hints of boysenberry and raspberry fruit and vanilla, spice and chocolate shadings too. Elegant and complex wine. Lengthy, focused finish. Sweet but consistent tannins.
