Savory hints of ground coffee, smoke and iron underscore black cherry coulis, anise, plum sauce and tea leaf notes. This graceful, well-spiced red seamlessly integrates fine but powerful tannins before lasting on the finish. Appealing now but should shine with some time in the cellar. Drink now through 2035. 1,000 cases made, 75 cases imported.
