Intensely perfumed aromas of ripe plum, blackberry, espresso, dried tobacco, and bacon fat. A mix of sweet and savory flavors explode on the palate, mingling spicy black fruit with mocha, leather, and a salty dash of beef jerky. Ripe powdery tannins provide structure to the rich and opulent midpalate and the wine finishes long and dry with hints of chocolate and charred wood. Drink now or keep in the cellar for the next 10 to 15 years.
