| Winemaker Notes: | |
| Deep Aromas of wild berries, almonds, white pepper and a hint of rose. On the first taste, the wine tantalizes the tongue with vivacious cherry fruit swirling amidst subtle oak spice, and a slight hint of smoky bacon. A superbly balanced wine, drinking beautifully now, but will benefit with short term cellaring. | |
