Dark purple in color with a light ruby hue on the robe. The nose offers an assortment of spice, light coconut and cedar spice over dark red berry and dark cherry fruit aromas. Medium fuller bodied, this has a backbone of acidity that gives the red fruit base juiciness and vibrancy. The tannins are finer grained, but firm enough to focus the fruit and give good supporting structure leading to a dry finish, saying this should show well over the next three years plus, where it will broaden out and gain more mid palate flesh.
With its noted acidity and vibrant fruit base this is made for food and would be a great addition to any outdoor grilling event.
