“A lively red, with a mix of singed sandalwood, iris, potpourri and black tea notes infusing a core of succulent cherry and mulberry fruit. Everything knits together wonderfully through the focused finish. Drink now through 2029. 295 cases made.”
“A good, deep core of black cherries drives this full-bodied and moderately tannic wine before it throws off cloves, wet stones, cedar and mushroom nuances with continued sips. It's well structured for pairing with roast birds or sauteed mushrooms.”
