Medium ruby color. Expressive aromas of cherry, fresh berries some blackcurrant and leather and some floral hints. Full bodied with layers of silky tannins against a strong backbone of acidity and balanced fruit. The finish seems to keep going on for ever! It has a long life ahead and will develop more complexity over time. Drink 2016 - 2031.
