"Deep ruby. Blackberry and cherry preserves on the nose, along with a zesty kick of minerals. Fresh and nervy (especially for a high-octane wine), offering lively red and dark berry flavors. Deeper mocha and licorice qualities gain strength on the finish, which also displays youthful tannic grip. Not an easy style, but shows more depth and structure than most wines at this price point."
