TASTING NOTE: Rich scents of blackcurrant liqueur, raspberry sauce and boysenberry lead the nose of this seductive wine, with additional hints of black pepper and charred spice adding depth. The mouthfeel is full and creamy, while medium tannins lend enough texture and grip to frame the full-flavored fruit character.
