  • International Wine Cellar
    Deep ruby. Explosive aromas of blackcurrant, plum, roasted coffee and saddle leather; displays a strong torrefaction aspect that suggests late-picked fruit. Thick, sweet and superripe; quite full and layered in the mouth, with somewhat rustic flavors. Finishes with firm, chewy tannins.
