Vivid red color. Ripe raspberry and cherry on the nose, with cola and musky underbrush qualities building with air. Bitter cherry and dark chocolate flavors are energized by dusty minerals and given grip by youthful tannins. Gains depth and sweetness on the sappy finish, which finishes with dark berries.
