Black violet color. Aromas of herb scone, plum sauce with ginger, dark chocolate, and leather patina with a lightly tannic, lively, dry-yet fruity medium full body and a warming, huge, very long juicy balck cassis, parsley, chervil, star anise, and tobacco finish with firm tannins and moderate oak flavor. Enchanting aromas beckon one to a glass of this brooding red that will please lovers of old and new world wines alike.
