"Dark ruby. Highly perfumed cherry, black raspberry, potpourri and exotic spice scents on the incisive nose; subtle licorice and woodsmoke qualities add complexity. Vibrant, sweet and expansive in the mouth, with a core of juicy acidity giving spine to palate-staining red and blue fruit compote, floral pastille and spicecake flavors. The floral quality gains strength on the finish, which shows outstanding tenacity and lingering cherry and mineral notes. - Josh Raynolds"
