Description

Dark, purple-black center with ruby-crimson reflections to the tears. The nose is dark and masculine, giving notions of black currant, peppered plums, and cigar tobacco.

There are layers of saddle leather, roasted herbs, animal hide, beef jerky, and forest leaves. Broad-shouldered and muscular, yet finely chiseled with a substantial, savory finish.

This is not your fruit-forward Malbec bomb; it has a substance and sophistication that well surpasses its price point.
