Meaty and fleshy plum aromas from the cork. Aromas of blackberry, violet, cedar oak, and smoked meat from the glass. Medium-bodied on the palate with ripe, dark fruits and subtle violet notes. Very smooth and well-balanced with very finely-grained tannins. Delicious and a great value! Tasted Oct/2012.

A dark, inky glass of wine with a nice earthy roundness on the nose that compliments all the dark berry fruit. It's got a little chewy texture and a sweetly spiced finish.
