Dark, glistening purple. Powerful kirsch, dark berry, incense, lavender and exotic spice aromas show sharp delineation and pick up a smoky mineral note as the wine opens up. Sweet and seamless in texture, offering deeply concentrated black raspberry, cherry preserve, five-spice powder and violet pastille flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Deftly melds richness and finesse and finishes extremely long and spicy, with resonating florality and pliant tannins that add shape and discreet grip. (JR)
