This impressive effort was aged 18 months in new Siruge, Damy and François Frères French oak barrels. The dark and inky colored wine opens with aromas of smoked meats, milk chocolate and blackberry. There is a lush mouthfeel with a nice mineral backbone. There are flavors of black tea, black cherry, and smoked meats. Layered and delicious wine that is drinking beautifully now.
