Saturated ruby. Deeply perfumed aromas of blackberry, cherry liqueur and violet gain olive, fruitcake and incense accents with air. Juicy and deeply concentrated, offering palate-staining black and blue fruit, olive paste, floral pastille and exotic spice flavors that become more energetic as the wine opens up. Blends richness and energy with a steady hand and shows superb clarity on a strikingly long finish that features youthfully gripping tannins and reverberating floral and spice notes
