Dark in color with a rich extraction that sticks to the glass. The nose is spicy and dusty with dried red fruits, plum, blackberries and a dry topsoil earthiness. On the palate this wine exhibits salty minerality, chalk, juicy black and red fruits and a touch of new oak. The tannins are fairly ripe, and overall this is a pretty tasty offering.
