Deep garnet-purple colored, this powerful and delicious new release offers up an array of intense, dark fruit flavors including boysenberries, crushed blackcurrants and hints of kirsch, lavender, violets, and stargazer lilies on the bouquet and palate. The velvety smooth and rich texture features fine tannins, spectacular depth of dark fruit flavors, and a lengthy finish (45 seconds long) that bodes well for enjoyment for the next 5-7+ years. We were immediately captivated by the fineness of the chewy tannins on the finish as they glide effortlessly along, extremely pleasing with a steak tonight. Enjoy tonight (decanting recommended) through 2028. Bravo!
