5 Stars VineSugar

Deep, inky color. This wine is going stain some teeth, no doubt. The aromas are sultry. Ripe, freshly picked black berries, plum with undertones of rich minerals and hearty oak. The entry is wonderful. Inviting, smooth and starts with loads berries and vanilla oak nuances. The wine amplifies through the finish where it continues to release layer after layer of well integrated flavors. Chocolate, espresso, exotic spices all linger at great length. Fine tannins that provide incredible structure that will let this wine age with grace. Big elegance!
