"There's fine depth and intensity to this red, along with a vibrant, energetic feel. Its black cherry, blackberry and violet aromas and flavors are framed by toasty new oak. Offers a fluid feel, with firm yet pliable tannins guarding the lingering finish. Drink now through 2033. 1,444 cases made, 481 cases imported."

"A rich and flavorful ruche that has aromas and flavors of roasted herbs, walnuts, sweet berry fruit and citrus peel. It™s full-bodied, ripe and dense, with chewy tannins. Sweet and savory character. Drink now or hold."
