Dark purple/crimson.

Aromas of fresh cranberry, blueberry, fig, cedar and cocoa nibs.

Sophisticated notes of wet slate minerality add poise and definition to flavors of plum, molasses, cherry and crushed rose petals. Silky tannins carry the wine to a beautifully structured finish with hints of moist earth, cranberry and bittersweet chocolate.
