"Black cherry, leather, tar and nose-tickling clove aromas mix with a tad of green pepper on the nose of this signature bottling. The wine is very elegant in structure and memorable in flavors of peppercorn and cherry pie, all while retaining an acidic tartness."

"Inky purple. Pungent aromas of dried cherry, blackberry and musky herbs, with a subtle floral nuance building with air. Juicy, concentrated and expansive, offering bitter cherry and licorice flavors and a hint of rose pastille. Dusty tannins give shape to the clinging, smoke-accented finish, very persistent finish."
