Ruby-red. Explosively perfumed, utterly seductive bouquet of raspberry, blackberry, garrigue and minerals. Deep flavors of sweet dark berry liqueur buttressed by vibrant minerality. Silky tannins add gentle grip to this suave midweight. Deftly combines power and finesse, finishing with outstanding sappy length.

Deep red. Powerful aromas of kirsch, blackberry and lavender, with a suave mineral undercurrent. Deeply concentrated and sweet, showing superb depth to its pure red and dark berry flavors. The chewy, extremely long finish offers supple tannins and complex flavors of cherry, cured tobacco and dark chocolate.
