Savory intensity drives this cerebral expression, with leather, licorice and mocha weaving through understated fruit. Rose petal and menthol lift the aromatics, while herbs and crushed flowers add layers of complexity. The structure shows restraint and elegance. A thinking person's Zinfandel that prioritizes finesse over power.
