• Aroma Profile: An intoxicating bouquet of ripe blackberry, dark raspberry, and plum, intertwined with signature notes of cedar box, wet stone, and aromatic dried herbs.
• Mouthfeel: Full and multilayered, balancing its immense weight with remarkable finesse. The tannins are fine-grained and integrated, providing a powerful structure that promises exceptional longevity. The finish is perfumed and persistent.
