Lively garnet with ruby highlights. Complex and well-balanced bouquet. Well-layered nose of red raspberry and licorice accompanied by smoky and spicy notes. It is supple and rich on the palate with a meaty texture and lively fruit. A medium-bodied red wine with soft drying tannins and just enough acidity to make this wine very food friendly. "Rounded and layered aromas of dried fruits, red cherry, smoke and coconut. Well polished and presented with red fruit and plum flavors sluicing through the palate. It is, simply, a beautiful wine with the X-factor." Rated 97 Points by Decanter
