WineSaint
Outrageously ripe and concentrated, with dense aromas of dark cherry, crème de cassis and exotic spice. Solid and weighty on the palate, reaching every corner of the mouth with seamless power. The tannins are broad and sweet, supporting waves of inky fruit. A powerhouse built for decades.
