Aroma: Aromas of black and red fruits (blackberries, blueberries, plums), complemented by notes of tobacco, cedar, frozen mint, spiciness, chocolate, and minerality. Flavors of perfumed violet and graphite.
Taste: Full-bodied with dense, harmonious tannins. Fruitiness is joined by fresh acidity, the bitterness of graphite minerals, and a silky structure. Flavors of black fruit, chocolate, tobacco, and herbs.
