Brown spice and earthy sweet aromatics. Hints of black strap molasses. Brambly and earthy red fruit flavors complemented by lesser notes of boysenberry and black cherry. Soft and plush texture mid-palate, edged with a slightly racy tannic and phenolic edge. The finish is lengthened by a persistent, acid spine.
