More discreet oak surrounds the notably spice-infused aromas of red and dark berries, sandalwood and Asian-style tea. The medium weight flavors possess a highly seductive and refined mouthfeel while delivering evident minerality on the persistent, complex and nicely balanced finish. This is firm and a bit austere but not rustic and should age gracefully.
