TASTING NOTE: From an immensely popular producer comes this deep, rich red that spent two years in barrel and three years in bottle before release. The extensive ageing process results in a strong wine with a firm backbone of supple tannins and aromas of black cherry, sun-dried tomato, fern, leather, coffee, and sweet tobacco. |
