Here too there is just enough wood influence to note on the very ripe though still reasonably fresh aromas of black raspberry coulis and a lovely array of spice nuances. The caressing, intense and enveloping medium weight plus flavors possess a velvety mid-palate that contrasts moderately with the powerful, markedly tannic and impressively long finish where a touch of warmth emerges.
