Medium red. Spicy and intensely floral nose shows energetic red berry aromas and a suave mineral quality. Silky in texture, with bright raspberry and strawberry flavors gently braced by soft acids. Finishes long, spicy and refreshingly brisk. Sussman advises that "this will really sing with six months in the bottle," as it has never seen much air.
