Light garnet color. Aromas and flavors of leather, tree bark, dried blueberry, and berry balsamic with a velvety, vibrant, dry medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish displaying overtones of cranberry and cherry, beeswax, blood orange, and leather with well-integrated tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. A spicy red to pair with a pork dinner.
