The wine exhibits a royal purple hue in the glass that is nearly opaque. Seductive aromas of spice -dusted blackberry compote, sandalwood, nutmeg and lilac emerge in concert. On the palate, there are saturated fruit and spice notes that compliment each other in equal parts. This wine has a lot of intensity and vivacious energy from the balanced acidity that carries the palate trajectory from front to back with a clean, sleek finish. There is a regal balance of hedonistic fruit notes and structural components that make this wine memorable. You will certainly be thinking about it well after the last sip.
