Intensely perfumed, mineral-accented blueberry, cherry and a hint of cracked pepper on the powerful nose. Appealingly sweet in the mouth, showing impressive depth to the ripe, smoke- and spice-tinged black/blue fruit preserve flavors. Shows a building floral quality and solid thrust on the youthfully tannic finish, which leaves behind candied violet and licorice notes.
