Opaque ruby. Expansive, oak-tinged cherry and cassis scents, along with exotic spice, vanilla and floral accents. Smooth, broad and appealingly sweet, offering palate-coating red and dark fruit flavors that become spicier and more energetic as the wine stretches out. Pliant tannins frame a long, juicy finish that strongly echoes the floral and spice notes. 32% new French oak.
