This sultry wine has a compelling nose of blackberries, boysenberries and charcoal briquettes. Thick and broad as it enters the palate, there’s plentiful density, superb fruit concentration and primo balance. Flavors of cassis, maple syrup and peat moss intertwine to create a crazy array of complexity. The incense-laden finish lingers with a balanced dryness. Drink now–2025.
