This full-bodied, elegant wine has a deep, ruby color and a complex nose of blackberry, cedarwood, and tobacco, as well as a hint of earthy minerals. On the palate, it is rich and powerful with intense, concentrated flavors of black cherry, dark chocolate, and a hint of cassis. The tannins are round and soft, and the finish is long and lingering.
