Nearly opaque dusty ruby color. Complex, floral, fresh, inviting, interesting aromas and flavors of fine furniture, berry jam, ripe plums, lavender, espresso, and pencil shavings with a lightly tannic, lively, dry full body and a hot, elegant, long finish that presents notes of vanilla scented tobacco, allspice, and clove with well-integrated, medium tannins and moderate oak flavor. A fruit-forward Napa Cab with balancing oak and spice; cellar.
