A vibrant and expressive profile, highlighting the clarity and freshness of the vintage. The nose opens with lifted aromas of black cherry, ripe blackberry, and red-currant tones, layered with dried rose petal, graphite, and cocoa powder. Subtle hints of cedar, baking spice, and fresh sage add aromatic dimension.  On the palate the wine is bright yet polished, offering concentrated flavors of black plum, cassis, and wild berry, supported by nuances of toasted spice, crushed stone, and a touch of vanilla bean.
