Dark in color with a black-tinged core surrounded by a cranberry rim, this wine offers a charismatic nose packed with ripe fruits, cigar humidor and decadent spiciness. The longer the wine sits in the glass, the more evident its light fruit evolution becomes, showing shades of fallen autumn leaves, roasted beets and camphor. While feeling full on the attack, the joltingly racy acidity gives it a mouthwatering finish accompanied by finely grained tannins. Ready to drink, this should hold well for a bit thanks to its racy structure. Drink now–2023.
