Bright violet. Lively aromas of fresh red berries, potpourri and smoky minerals develop a peppery nuance in the glass. Fleshy and appealingly sweet, offering juicy raspberry and floral pastille flavors that firm up slowly on the back half. Concentrated but also lively; fine-grained tannins lend shape to a long, spice-accented finish.
