Deep red-ruby. Captivating, high-pitched nose offers blackberry, rose petal, curry powder and white pepper, with sexy oak in the background. Silky on entry, then pungent and penetrating in the mid-palate, with superb intensity and clarity to the flavors of raspberry, minerals, rose petal, licorice and spices. This boasts marvelous inner-mouth floral perfume, with a saline, iodiney quality adding another element of complexity on the brisk, palate-staining. High class!
