One member of our tasting panel stated, "I could just sit here and smell this wine." Coffee, baked fruits, leather and roasted pork can all be found within the robust aroma. And it doesn't stop there. On the palate, the cassis and baked blackberry show amazing extraction, while the spice backbone consists of coffee, cinnamon, cayenne, toasted oak and char. Lovely.
