Develop wines of intriguing tension, with round,
opulent blue fruit characters
Bright ruby in hue, this wine opens with beautiful floral aromas of violet and hints of lavender. Deep blue fruits, smoked paprika, and dried candy cap mushrooms are also present. Elegant and finessed on the palate, there is an intensity and energy driven by stem inclusion that supports mouth coating tannin for a beautiful balance. Flavors of dried bing cherry and sassafras mix with spicy oak notes that gives a lingering finish.
