Rich and expansive with gorgeous concentration from this cool-climate site. Black cherry, crushed herbs, smoked meat and white pepper flow with impressive intensity. Velvety tannins provide excellent structure without overwhelming the dark fruit core. An outstanding value that delivers serious complexity.
