Garnet color. Fruity, jammy aromas and flavors of dark chocolate, violet, black raspberry, and leather with a velvety, soft, dry-yet-fruity full body and a warming, involved, medium-long finish with notes of black cherry, cola, plum, and cracked pepper with chewy, well-integrated tannins and moderate oak flavor. Dark and chewy, with violet notes all day, decadent with plenty of sweet, ripe fruit.
